Windows 2000 and XP have a feature called "digital signing": Technet Article on SMB Digital Signing, which is apparently turned on if the server is functioning as a domain controller.

When adding a pci Network card to SCO OSR5, the card should just "pop up" with netconfig - yoyu shouldn't get a whole list of cards to choose from. If it does not, you probably do not have the right driver and should visit ftp://ftp.caldera.com/pub/openserver5/drivers/ to get it. Also use "hw -r pci" to see what is actually installed. *** !!! network !!! nic !!! netconfig !!! network card !!! 3com !!! 3c905c !!! pro100 !!! ***
