win98/samba problems

[Gerry Doris]

OK, I did as you suggested and ran the command below.  I've included the exact
dialog that was returned.  Any and all help would be appreciated.  I've
printed out so much of the samba doc's that I'm now awash in paper and will
soon need to chop down another tree!!  BTW, the win98 box is called CS198787-A
with an ip of 10.0.0.1.  The samba server is leopard at 10.0.0.2.
