Connecting DOS PC with netbeui to a Windows Server 2003

[larry tait]

Hello All
Problem: I need to continue using older single board computers
running Dos 6.22 and using netbeui to connect to our latest windows
2003 server. (joining using comands of the the type
Net logon user_name ? /dourdomain, net use n:
\\sever_name\shared_res , etc.

I have succeeded in adding the netbeui protocol to the 2003 server
(http://www.windowsitpro.com/Article/ArticleID/41056/41056.html) and I
have disabled the digitally-signed-network-comm requirement .
I still can't get the net use or the net logon functions to work
(access denied) (I have enabled the guest account as well)

Mr Nicolas Heyer in past postings here, managed to get a link going
and he mentioned The systems.ini settings. (domain\user) DOeS anyone
Know what they are (Nicolas?) Has anyone here got their Dos based
PC's logging on to their 2003 servers with netbeui. (I have the lanacfg
settings pointing the netbeui to the correct network card.

Thanks for your reply

I already found the source of my problem and I can connect via "net use" to
the Windows 2003 server. First of all, I modified some entries in the
SYSTEM.INI file of the DOS PC to reflect my environment (domain, username).
Then I found out that the DOS PC sees my Windows 2003 server when the DOS PC
resides on the same LAN than the server.
I then only had to use the "net use" command to map a drive to a server share.
