Do you use on the OS/2 machines the peer requester or smbfs?

If you use the peer requester, there is no chance to get win7 and OS/2
networking together. If you use smbfs, at one point, somewhere about 5 jears
ago, a patch disabled the old ntlmv1 features with win7. you have to enable
them manually, but you also have to disable the password encryption of win7
netbios stack. But, if you update your win7 computers, all settings will
deleted again.

Ahm, I'm described the problem already in os2.ger. Maybe I find the patch and
the reg-cmds for win7.

But, it is more comftable and safe to get rid of peer requester and the old
smbfs system of OS/2. Just deinstall the stuff, get the samba4 fileserver from
netlabs. Be sure to fetch and install samba4. samba3 isn't longer supportet
with newer updates of win7.

To give a proper answer, I need some more information about your setting. ;-)

Anyway, it is a OS/2 problem, not a windows problem. ;-)
You get this problem as well, if you use linux above kernel 2.4.x and bsd above
 version 7.x.x
