From: "Robert Comer" 

I really haven't had any problems with my W2K Server and WinXP clients
other than WinXP other than a strange tendency for Win2k to forget about
WinXP shares after time, and the only way to get at the shares again is to
disconnect the share and the reconnect it.  Performance isn't all that much
different.
