Problem Mapping directories in Win95/98

Hi,
	I've just installed samba and got it to work for me, but I have a problem 
mapping directories in Windows 95/98. I can map the Actual drive with:

	net use f: \\server\f

But if I do:

	net use x: \\server\f\public	/* We are migrating from a novell 3.12 sever */

I get an error 50.

If I use the explorer shell to map the drives, it maps X:\ to the root 
directory (\\server\f).

If I use Windows 2000, everything maps out fine with the same 
username/password combo.

The directory that I'm trying to map is read-write-executable by the user 
thats logging in.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Jason Stewart
