Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 interoperability issues (Read Details!)
=====================================================================
Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0 interoperability issues.
SUMMARY
Windows Server 2003 Domain Controllers implement default security settings that
help prevent Domain Controller communications from being hijacked or otherwise
tampered with. Certain down level machines are not capable of meeting these
security requirements and thus cannot communicate with Windows Server 2003 Domain
Controllers without administrative intervention.
Affected machines include Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95 machines that do not
have the DS client pack installed, Windows NT 4.0 machines prior to Service Pack 4,
and devices, including Pocket PC 2002 and previous versions, based on the Windows
CE .NET version 4.1 or earlier.
SMB SIGNING
By default, Windows Server 2003 Domain Controllers require that all clients
digitally sign SMB-based communications. The SMB protocol is used to provide file
sharing, print sharing, various remote administration functions, and logon
authentication for some down level clients. Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95
machines without the DS Client Pack, Windows NT 4.0 machines prior to Service Pack
3, and devices, including Pocket PC 2002 and previous versions, based on the
Windows CE .NET version 4.1 or earlier are not capable of performing SMB signing
and therefore cannot connect to Windows Server 2003 Domain Controllers by default.
If such clients cannot be upgraded to a current operating system or upgraded to
meet the minimum requirements described above, then the SMB signing requirement can
be removed by disabling the following security policy in the Default Domain
Controller GPO on the domain controllers OU:
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security
Options\Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)
Detailed instructions on how to modify this setting are provided below.
Warning: Disabling this security setting exposes all of your Domain Controller
communications to "man in the middle" types of attacks. Therefore it is highly
recommended that you upgrade your clients rather than disabling this security
setting. The DS Client Pack, necessary for Windows 95 clients to perform SMB
signing, can be obtained from the \clients\win9x subdirectory of the Windows 2000
Server CD.
