Yes, this is enabled, but still, I fail to see what the problem is, my

shall I post my samba config file?

You have enabled user profiles on the 98 machines (control panel

Try "net use * /HOME" on the windows machines, it should mount
The servers Profiles share. Check if you can create files there
