Hi ,

I am using Mandrake 7.2 and trying to 
install samba to share my linux hard 
disk with Windows 98 ...

Herewith my config and diagonstics : 
	    
	   bigserver <------------> aclient
runing  :  mandrake 7.2             Win98
Ip Addr.:  192.168.0.1              192.168.0.2
password
encrypted   activated               activated

- ping commands work fine on both ways, so my Tcp/ip
  connection is ok

- I did testparm, no error

- smb.conf file based on sample

- netbios-ssn port is in a LISTEN state

> nmblookup -d 2 '*'

added interface ip=192.168.0.1 bcast=192.168.0.255
nmask=255.255.255.0
querying * on 192.168.0.255
Got a positive name query response from 192.168.0.1 ( 192.168.0.1 )
Got a positive name query response from 192.168.0.2 ( 192.168.0.2 )

> smbclient -L bigserver

added interface ip=192.168.0.1 bcast=192.168.0.255
nmask=255.255.255.0
session request to BIGSERVER failed (Not listening for calling name)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Not listening for calling name)


Question's :
1- What does mean this smbclient response ?
How can I fix it ?

2- Looking for Mandrake 7.2 and Windows98 
samba document(s). I got many like HOWTO, etc.
But don't really applicable ...


Thanks for helping.
Abdon
