Switch off "Use DNS for windows name resolution" It will look for a lot of names continually that won't exist. You could try to install a caching only nameserver (this is easy with debian, just install bind) point the NT Box at your linux server as the only nameserver, then log the queries by sending the nameserver a SIGWINCH. This way you know what names the silly NT box is trying to relove via DNS. Nils -- Plug-and-Play is really nice, unfortunately it only works 50% of the time. To be specific the "Plug" almost always works. --unknown source
