Win98 and Samba

Have Samba 2.0.3 compiled on NCR UNIX SysVR4, 3.02.00,  on one server and Samba 2.0.2 on same UNIX on another server.  Have Samba 2.0.3 compiled on a test PC running Redhat Linux version 5.2.   Only difference is the compilation on the NCR servers was with "cc" while the Linux box compiled with "gcc".

Using Windows NT 4.0, no problem connecting to any of the servers and printers and folders display properly.  Same smb.conf setup in all servers.

However, using Windows 98, I can connect to and see the Linux Samba OK, but the NCR UNIX servers display everything as printers.  Net View \\computername displays everything as type printer.  Why is this?

Also interested in any documentation to assist in getting Samba working over sub-nets.  Anything available?
