Graham, Re the compilation problems, I found the following section in smbsh on the Website I mentioned in my last posting :

All I know about smbsh is that it allows access to NT filesystems using Unix >commands. The commands have to be dynamically linked for it to work properly. smbspool (look at the man-page, newer levels only) is the equivalent >if you want to access a SMB printer.

The 'smbsh' man-page (2.0.3 and above) and file README in samba/source/smbwrapper give some clues as to what smbsh should do.

You can compile it on supported systems (see that README file) with 'make smbwrapper' or by adding the '--with-smbwrapper' option to the ./configure.

Linux systems with glibc-2.1 (and guess what I have . . .) are not supported - >the glibc maintainers deliberately removed the necessary hooks; apparently >they do not like user-space filesystems.

As for your other problems, I can only report that I am using Samba 2.0.7 under SuSe 6.4 to access my Win98 box from linux, and it works fine.
