i haven't had a win 98 in my possession in so long so i'm just going to
guess where i think it might be...
Go to the property pages of TCP/IP on your LAN settings and there should
be a page where there is a pull down menu that shows browse functions.
"Act as master browser", or some related syntax, is chosen by default on
the machines i was working with. choose "Never" for browsing functions.
that way the Win 98 machines will never win the browse election process.
reboot those machines that were changed.
sorry for the vagueness. it's been a while. contact me directly if you
need further help. the actual screens escape me.
good luck.

since you have Win 98 machines floating around, i would check to make
sure they are not acting as master browsers when the server is rebooted
or down.
i'm telling you this from the exact same experience i had.
good luck.

I have a small network: W2K Server SP2 with 2 NICs one for internal and
one
for cable modem that is shared. A bunch of WIN98 clients. Things have
been
running smooth for a while and all of a sudden none of the clients can
be
authenticated through the server. When I try to go into manage user
accounts
I get the following message: "Naming information cannot be located
because:
The specified domain either does not exist or cannot be contacted.
Contact
your system administrator to verify that your domain is properly
configured
and is currently online." Well ladies and gentlemen I am the so called
system administrator and I have no clue what to do. Please help me.
Thanks
