remote announce

[barry]

Friends:
The "remote announce" option doesn't seem to do anything. I've checked
that the workgroup is correct.  On windoze 98 I can get to the server
using "find computer" but it doesn't appear in network neighborhood on
any of the remote subnets.

Thanks for any info you can give

BTW samba seems very complicated. I reckon I can build a firewall or
rebuild my kernel with far less trouble than I've had configuring samba.
Why so is it so complicated?

I've written my own samba page as an attempt at simplifying setup

Peace.
