If you expect to see the iSeries from Windows explorer, then you must be running Netserver. Netserver has a place where the _WINDOWS_ domain name needs to be enter. You can configure Netserver from iSeries Ops-Nav. Note that you'll need to use the "downlevel" Windows domain name normally used by Win NT and Win 9x systems. I know it's kind of confusing, the Windows domain name and the TCP/IP domain name are two different things. Even more confusing is that with Win 200x and active directory, the Windows domain name is basically the TCP/IP domain name. But Windows 200x active directory allows you to specify or will configure for you a "downlevel" domain name to use with NT or Win 9x clients. This downlevel name is what you need to stick into the iSeries Netserver. HTH, Charles
