Here is the link to the 2K explanation of this that I was able to find on the net. Saved my butt. I don't have/allow any XP on our network so I am unable to look at the config options to see if this works for XP. Hope it helps some.

Is there something else that I should have done to include SMB over NBT? Did I forget an XP configuration step?

This got rid of some 2K issues I was having with Samba.
