We are about to install a new Win2k or 2003 server, the site concerned
currently has a mix of XP Pro, Win2k and Win98 2nd Ed workstations running
on a peer-peer network.

We know that the SBS automatic wizards do not work properly or at all for
Win98
clients but are not sure if this means that we cannot use plain vanilla 2003
Server without
having to replace all Win98 workstations.

Comments would be much appreciated.
