WinNT 5.1 clients will work on a schedule if, IF, you first deinstall the
previous client, reboot the box, install the 5.1 client, and reboot the box.
That is the only way we have found to guarantee against 3 AM server crashes.

Be aware that expiration still doesn't work right in 5.1.1.4.  If your
production window is tight, you may also run into a problem with MAXSESS.
