>From the Samba.org site:

Samba 2.2.0 + Win2K SP 2 or WinXP

With Service Pack 2 Microsoft have added some new
RPC calls and uses them to join the domain, the same
RPC calls are found on Windows XP Beta release.

Samba 2.2.0 does not have this new set of RPC calls
and this make problems to Win2000-sp2 and winXP.

Samba Team have yet fixed this bug in CVS tree and
it will be solved in samba-2.2.1 for both Win2000-sp2
and WindowsXP


Basically Win2k SP2 and WinXP "break" SMB

Hi all.  Does anyone know why WinXP would not be compatible with SAMBA in
Linux 8.1?  My buddy installed WinXP on his client machine which used to
talk to the Linux box real well and now all of a sudden he cant recognize
the Linux box on his network.  Could this be because you have to install
Services for Unix on XP?  Is it because he could have his IP scheme wrong on
his XP machine?

Please help.  TIA.
