    Hi!
    I recently configured a Samba server which works wonderfully from a W2k
    box but when I try to connect to it from a Win98 box it doesn't find
    anything. I've never configured Win98 on a LAN so I don't know how it
    works, is there something I have to configure in Win98 so that it finds
    the Samba server? It does find it's way through to the internet so the
    network card is properly configured.
