Re: [WinMac] Trouble setting up NT server

        Try installing NetBEUI on both the NT4 Server and win `98 box... It's a
workaround, but it'll be guaranteed to work since NetBEUI is virtually
bulletproof.

        The advantage of NetBEUI: Fastest transfer speed...

        The disadvantage: NetBEUI is non-routeable, i.e only for small LANs (<255
nodes).

        Hope this helps!
