I am looking for a way to login to an NT PC from Windows 98 much like you can with Windows 2000. The 98 PC is logged into a novell network with a user that doesnt have an account on our NT server. If anyone knows a program that can do this or has any ideas please let me know.
Thanks

Easy. Just create an account for the user on the NT machine. Use the same name as the Novell account to keep things simple.

There are ways to synchronize password changes between the Novell and NT systems, but I forget what they are.

Look them up at support.microsoft.com

Oh, don't forget to add client for MS networks on the 98 machine if it isn't already.

If having 2 accounts is too much hassle, and there isn't a lot of usage on the Novell system, you can look into Gateway Services for Netware. It makes the Novell server's resources appear to be part of the NT's resources, but it's also a bottleneck.

Actually, we are going to do this from all of our PC's (Over 1000), so we were trying to find a way to do this without creating accounts for each person.
