It seems to have joined the domain. When I told it to do that, there were no error messages. The login account that I used is the administrator of the win2k network. However, when I log in to the Linux box, I’m loggin in as root.

B. The queue type says windows share(smb). Doesn’t seem to be text transfer as I get corretly formatted RTF.

c. Yes. I am familiar with the net commands. Let me try that to see. NET VIEW tells me that there’s no such command. net use tells me that there’s no such command. Net lookup allows me to lookup serviers on the win2k network. I think that I must not really be joined to the domain, because net join mydomain says ‘transport endpoint not connected’ ‘unable to find a suitable server.’ Net rpc testjoin returns Join to MYDOMAIN is not valid.

d. I’m able to ping the Linux server by address, not by name.
