- We tried Workgroups but some of the 'features' (I belive the drive scanning
- stuff and chat) don't work unless its between nodes on the same trunk. I
- called them and was told Workgroups does not work completly with "other"
- protocols and there are not any current plans to make it compatable.
- It seems to work fine on Microsoft's LanManager though. I'm avoiding it like
- plague since Microsoft seems to be trying to create their own world (in which
- case you'll end up getting what Microsoft decides you'll get).
