I didn't have much choice in the matter,  at the time...

What's the earliest dated file that will work for this purpose?

Of those I have only WFWG installed on another machine here,  and it seems to 
want to use "microsoft network",  I'm not sure if I can stick something else 
in there or not,  nor am I sure about protocols,  etc.  Linux I'm planning on
