As far as I can tell Windows in general has such brain-dead networking
code that Windows machines shouldn't even be *allowed* to connect to a
network. Anything that works *at*all* with standard protocols tries to
pervert them to the point where they don't *really* work with machines
other than Windows.

I hate Windows. I hate Windows networking even more.

Win 3.11:	"The network is busy" My ass, it is.
Windows 95:	"Make sure you typed the name correctly" I didn't type it, I
clicked on it.
Windows NT:	"No network provider accepted the given path" What friggin'
path?

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
