when you log on to the win98 machine, do you also log on to the winnt domain?

make sure that client for microsoft networks is the default network logon, and it's set to logon to the windows nt domain, that might fix the problem

Hi

1.. Is your exchange server in a different domain?
2.. As your login been setup so that the same password exists for Domain Login / Exchange Login?

Hopefully these two questions will help you resolve your problem.

1. Can you ping the mail server from the 98 machine?

2. Is the mail server setup in the profile of the Outlook client and does the name check in ok?

in the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\

create a new key and call it Exchange

once you successfully login to Outlook it will keep the User and Domain filled in.

After you complete the "answer number 1" reply you may need the DS Client for Win98 so you can log into a Domain properly. The only DS Client for win98 that works may be found on a Win2000 server Install CD. Note: Win98 wasn't designed to log into a domain. and thus you will run into password problems if your password expires.
