Yes i know it can be incorperated into an existing forest, but If I want =
to use its file sharing abilities to combine multple shared folders on =
the=20
various drives all into one master share, and then serve that master=20
share to other computers/ applications. Can that be done with XP or do=20
I have to use 2000 server or some Linix varrient?
I heard it is possible somehow... but i dont know how reliable i would=20
call the source.., he was saying somehting aobut the "my shared=20
folders" directories being published in AD, and XP can do it but will=20
only support 2 clients... but Like i said I dont know if i trust my=20
source...
