Keep in mind that starting with Win2K, WINS and DNS are integrated, breaking RFC's and causing other major headaches (as Charles lightly states to below). Samba or NT are much easier to do this with. The best success I've found is a Samba WINS server on atleast one of the tunnel sides. Mapping is almost required for any practical use IMHO if your not running a total Win2K environment. > ...make sure you > MAP remote network resources rather than simply browsing to > them...for some reason access is orders of magnitude faster that way. __MUCH__ faster!!! -- ~Lynn Avants aka Guitarlynn guitarlynn at users.sourceforge.net http://leaf.sourceforge.net If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question! _______________________________________________ Leaf-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
