Unable to get 98 machine on the network
I struggled with this with another windows 98 machine last week, but in the
end was able to get it worked out by installing the dsclient9x. This machine is a different story. When I try to install the dsclient9x it tells me that the version of the windows installer is too old and to install a service pack. I compared the properties of this machine to the one I was successfully able to install on the other machine and they look the same to me from what I can tell, but I really don't know windows 98 too well. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Oh the error I get is "the system could not log you in, DC not available" Which is slightly different than what I was getting with the other machine "The password you supplied for the domain is incorrect or the logon server denied you access". |

Go to Windows Updates and get the machine up to date. That should fix the
installer version issue. Once you've got the dsclient9x installed, see if that doesn't fix your logon problems. -- Gary S. Terhune MS-MVP Shell/User www.grystmill.com "Penny" wrote in message ...
