HELP! WinNT3.5 in LanMan/Unix Domain

I am running LanManager for UNIX (SCO) as my primary domain
controller. I have recently installed WinNT 3.5 Workstation and have
consistent problems. I will eventually move to an NT Server domain,
but until then, I need to get by.

1) The Workstation cannot locate the domain controller for WILMA.DOM.
The server's name is wilma and its address is 199.125.223.97. I can
ping the server and even browse its resources, print to its queues and
use its disk drive (more or less). When I try nbtstat -A
199.125.223.97, I get "Host not found.". I can run the same command on
other WFWG hosts in the domain.

2) I cannot connect to the domain under the Network settings in
control panel, only to a workgroup of the same name. The message is
"Domain Controller Not Found".

3) Accessing files on wilma is 'weird'. I can read a file into an
application, but cannot copy the file using File Manager or the Copy
command. I get the message "Unexpected Network Error occurred".

4) Frequently, I get the Popup message "Network Name Deleted".

Will NT3.5 work in a LM/U domain?
Anyone else have this setup?

Thanks for any help!
