Wrong on both scores. I have offered to help out a company who's sysadmin
was badly injured in a motor car accident on Saturday night. I was given
the passwords by the financial manager at the site on the other side of
South Africa and thanks to positive input by Andrew and others I have
managed to fix the problem. The company does not have the resources to
upgrade to 2000 but I have offered suggestions to change the NT4
configuration.
I will provide a step-by-step trace of the solution tomorrow but, 1am has
come and gone and I need some sleep...
