Hmm--do you have the same username and password on the W98 machine as on the Linux machine? Do you have an entry for the W98 machine in /etc/samba/lmhosts How about an entry for it in /etc/hosts Does the /etc/hosts.allow entry cover the IP addy of the offending machine? You can add the name and IP addy of the Linux machine to the W98 machine's lmhost file. I'm assuming that the W98 box shows up everywhere but on the Linux box. hth Erylon | | Also, to move or copy files from one machine to another is there anything | that I need to do as well, ie permissions or configuring routes,,,please | advise. | | Thanks in advance. | bj | | TGIF
