3.2 Setting Up Windows NT 4.0 Computers

Configuring Windows NT is a little different than configuring Windows 95/98. In order to use Samba with Windows NT, you will need both the Workstation service and the TCP/IP protocol. Both come standard with NT, but we'll work through installing and configuring them because they may not be configured correctly.

There are six basic steps:

1. Assign the machine a name.

2. Install the Workstation service.

3. Install the TCP/IP protocol.

4. Set the machine's name and IP address.

5. Configure the DNS and WINS name services.

6. Bind the protocol and service together.
