Yes and no, It's the last question of  a section on user accounts, but it's not a topic on itself. I tried google, but didn't get any wiser of that. My buddy here next to me even says that it's not even possible to do so, so now I'm a bit confused  :(

Win 98 and Win 95 is not supported with AD.

You can look though the tech stuff on Microsoft's web site and they have a KB about some regsitry hacks to sort of help it work with AD but keep in mind that Win 98 was never supposed to be used with AD.
