Given the amount of evidence that has been posted in the thread, we can come to MAYBE a final conclusion that this build is fake and has absolutely nothing to offer... except for a minimal build number change.

Objections, LongerHorn?

Yeah, notice that disk is also from May 1999. That hopefully rules out build 5000 being from June...

That's assuming this build is real, which I'd like to believe, but now I'm not so sure.

First round of MD5's:

NTOSKRNL.EXE in root-
Image

Kernel32.dll in /system32
Image

0411.csv in 0411.cs_
Image

I'll come up with some more. 4 or 5 more in the cabs, and I'll confirm this build is fake.

Edit: Added by Battler on yourepicfailure's request:
certwiz.ocx in certwiz.oc_
Image

eiccard.inf in eiccard.in_
Image

rpcproxy.dll in rpcproxy.dl_
Image

And the files in cabs match, from 5111 and this iso. Root in this case is i386/

Guys, I don't think we should take it out on LongerHorn if it's fake. You can be upset if it's not real, but I really don't see why we should be mad at him for trying to help out. Don't shoot the messenger.

I think enough has been said on this topic, and enough evidence provided for fakery.

We don't blame LongerHorn for this build as he got duped into believing this is real, or his source was. Who got tricked doesn't matter, what matters is that we discovered it's fake and that's it. At the very least I think we should at least be happy that LongerHorn brought it to us so we know in the future when this build surfaces again from the next member.

Good work everyone identifying this properly.
