I am able to use Outlook just fine; I seem to recall I had problems using
OL2k when I set this with OL2k on Win2k; but OLXP on WinXP to Exchange
<sadly, don't know what version of server 'they' run @ our corporate HQ>
works just fine.

Thanks!
TJ

Be aware that even in a pure Win2K+ environment, some functionality still
uses NTLM, such as:

Outlook (even XP) to E2K
Logging on using cached credentials
Using \\<ip_address_of_machine>
