I am running windows 98 on client computers.can any one tell me how to fix this problem and what cause of this problem.

We had problems with W95. On the W2000 server there is a client that can connect to Active Directory. W9x uses another connection method. (W98 standard can connect to W2003 in our company)
The file is located at E:\CLIENTS\WIN9X\DSCLIENT.exe
