Yup, there should not be too much trouble.  Sean, you mentioned that RedHat 
changed their netconf tool - are you having trouble getting the RedHat 7.3 box 
online period (as in you have no network connectivity now), or are you just 
having trouble getting Samba configured to talk to the XP-Pro box?

A Windows XP-Pro box should work just fine with Samba, including logging on to 
a domain hosted by a Samba box.  XP-Home is network crippled by Microsoft, and 
will only do the peer-to-peer networking (I guess Microsoft got tired of small 
businesses using their "home" OS line at work).

Can you give us a little more detail of where the problem is?

Cheers,

James
