You have:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:40:95:45:63:F6
inet addr:192.168.0.1 Bcast:192.168.0.255
Mask:255.255.255.0
but in your earlier mail, you said:
3) Through Win 98 and 95 as per each machine , Computer name allocated
along
with usergroup. Identifying these machines with TCP/IP set up and IP
addressess 192.168.1.1 , 2 & 3 respectively , subnet masks as
255.255.255.0
i still get nothing.
so it seems the linux machine is in the 192.168.0.xxx subnet while the
windows machines are in the 192.168.1.xxx subnet.
