Never heard, that someone needs a special client for XP Home.
I think, the NW Client for XP should work on XP Pro as well as on XP Home.

Hmmm, I've no WinXP Home. You should try it out. If it doesn't work, there is no problem to uninstall it.

I've installed the 4.90 client w/ sp2 on an XP Home PC and it works fine. I'm having a small issue with not being able to login AFTER booting up [logs in fine with the Boot Login screen], but this is a problem I have experienced on Xp Pro PC's as well.

This can be solved, by checking the properties from the NW Client, because I'm using it on XP Pro, and haven't got this problem. Mostly, you have to check the advanced setting of the client.

Hi Michael,
did you try the "advanced" button, choose the tree and the right context and than try to login.
What kind of problem do you have, to connect your IP to Groupwise? It's not clear to me. Could you describe this problem?
