I solved my problem of not being able to run executables residing on a
samba server on a win95 client. I'm not sure why, but all I did was
simply setup a drive which pointed to the samba share, i.e.
C:> net use X: \\SAMBASERVER\user1
where user1 is the logon id. I can then click on the X: drive under
My_Computer and run the executable. I guess in trying to run directly
from the Network_N'hood, there was some confusion about the path.
Anyway, all is working now, but the above solution brings on another
problem which I have documented in the thread "logon scripts."
Thanks to all who offered there help!
