Re: Mask Linux to appear as an NT workstation

Hi Art,

I can offer you nothing specific, though I remember quite clearly a
review of Samba which stated certain 'white hat' copyright violations
had been included to give the system administrator the ability to make
the Samba machine look exactly like an NT server. So, I think you will
find success in this venture :o) I would have a good hunt around the
Samba site for docs on how to accomplish this.
