samba and win98 networking

**mojo jojo** · 08-19-2004, 09:42 AM

Hey

for the past 2hr I have been trying to network my linux box with my win98 one, but I cannot seem to mount them I keep getting a error in LinNeighbourhood.

I have looked through the docs on google justlinux linux.org and samba but I couldnt find anything useful unless I missed what I was looking for...again :-[. I also try what it said in the doc but it didnt work.

I can't even connect to SWAT I keep getting connection refused to connect to localhost:901 but webmin connects just fine :-\. The win98 box has file and print sharing on. Also the win98 box has no firewall (I know I need one but not going to :P)

TIA
Michael
