Herb here are the results of the commands you gave me.

I tried these from a xp machine.

>net use * \\serverName\ShareName
Reports password or user name is invalid.
Did not give option to enter a user name only a password.

>net use * \\serv.IP.Add.ress\ShareName * /user:Domain\username
Worked.

I passed the user name and password of another account , not admin
account that resides on the NT4 PDC and what looked like a mapped
network drive was created on the client.

Was able to browse the list etc.

It looks like Auth against the PDC is working as the user account used
did not exist on the 2003 server but only on the NT4 PDC.

One more thing. I fired up a old win98 pc that was logged into the nt4
domain and was able to see the shared resources on the 2003 server.

Looks like the problem is only with the win2k, xp based pc's

Any other insight.

Thanks.... Josh.
