mixed server environment issues
« on: August 16, 2000, 02:52:27 AM »
In my house I have a Novell server, e-smith 4.0 server, win2k pro desktop, and an NT 4.0 desktop.  I am using the novell client.  I am currently authenticating into the netware server.  I would also like to have access to my e-smith server as well.  I am pretty new to e-smith.  I set the e-smith up to be the PDC with a workgroup name of home.  On the NT and win2k pc's I currently have them in the home domain.  Must I change that and put them in the home workgroup.  If so, why?  If I add an NT server to the mix, and make it the pdc in a domain called home, and change my workstations accordingly, will I still be able to see everything from the e-smith box?  (i-bays, etc.)

Now, I could spend my time in my room eventually figuring it out, but my wife and kids would like to see me.  So, all help is greatly appreciated.

TIA,
