LAN CONNECTING WIN SERVER 2003 AND WIN95 WIN98

Please help me and enlighten me on whether I can connect
WIN SERVER 2003 with WIN95 and WIN98 computers in a LAN.
I was told that this will not work because of
incompatibility, problem in authenticating domain. Is
this true?

Yes it is.

Hi,

There are a few security policies that can affect connectivity to Win2K3
servers from Win9x clients. Security policy for digitally sign
communications on the Default domain controller policy may be the issue:

In the policy try disabling Microsoft network client (and server) :
Digitally sign communications (always), and (if server agrees).

Some further information is in

Thank you,
