I remember that Win98 couldn't see WinXP shares unless its "Primary Network Logon" be on "Client for Microsoft Networks" and its login-name and password be equal to one of WinXP admins. May similar problem with samba? I appreciate if you test and reply, because I need 98+linux network.
Can you get to the samba server by typing in the IP, like: \\192.168.1.1\ or whatever the IP is? I don't know if this is related, but with Win9x clients, you should really have samba run as a wins server, and ad a wins entry on each Win98 machine's network setup. As far as I know it shouldn't really make a difference in Win2k/XP, but my feeling is it does. -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy Newington Consulting Services hansdp at newingtoncs dot co dot za
