There is no ftp server running on your W2K machine(s). FTP != samba.

Try a
smbclient -L <your linux hostname> -U Mark

and see if your shares (at least the "Mark" home share should be there 
in the default config.) are listed.

Then try to "Connect Network drive" from the windows explorer and use 
\\Linux\Mark as share name.

I don't know what the error msg. you mentioned means, sorry.
