When
you log into the workstation, check the NetBIOS cache to see if it knows the IP
of a Domain Controller:
nbtstat -c
I just
ran into a problem where a bunch of 98 machines, on first boot, are not getting
that from Subnet Broadcasts or WINS, and it shows up as a 0.0.0.0 entry in the
NetBIOS name cache... haven't figured out what's causing it yet tho -
definitely name resolution at some level...
take care,

hi,
I still have a few Win98 clients on my
Win2000 AD domain. Starting this morning, when a normal user account tries to
login on Win98, they get an MS Networking popup error: "The share name was not
found. Be sure you typed it correctly." This prevents them from logging
in.
My administrator account can login normally on the 98 client. The
user can login fine on a Win2000 or XP client. This seems to have affected all
of our 98 clients (three have complained so far, maybe one or two
left).
Google and MS Technet don't turn up any good info for that error
message. I'm using this as an excuse to complete the Win2000 migration,
but am curious what might be happening.
