It's not just connecting to the server, it's every time you browse
another share on the same machine as well.
I can't accept that this is the case with W2K - do people actually put
up with this, or is the real issue that nobody on this list is using W2K
Pro workstations on a Linux-server-only network? I mean, I knew the
uptake of W2K Pro was slow, but if nobody on this list has a Linux-only
server room and has implemented W2K workstations, then I would have to
be pretty surprised.
