NT does not treat Linux systems the same as it treats other NT systems.
NT doesn't even know it's talking to a Linux machine. > You will never have the seamless integration into the domain that other NT/2000 systems enjoy. Not anything wrong with Linux, just a fact of the domain implementation that MS engineered. As far as accessing shares and printers is concerned, a Linux machine behaves exactly like a Windows one. > >> You also should not have had to set up a static IP for your Linux box. > >False, again. There is no reason not to use a static IP address. > What? That's preposterous. Of course you want to use dynamic IP's on workstations. And besides, no one said he couldn't use static IP's. I said there's no reason why he couldn't use dynamic IP's. Think about it... he's gettign all his references (gateway, etc..) from DHCP.... This dynamic/static IP address issue was my big misunderstanding (I'm an ESL, after all).
