A few things to check:
1. support for encrypted passwords on your network. All new Win98SE come
with encrypted passwords enabled. If you are passing the password in clear
text, you will get the error message you mentioned (share not found etc).
Check you smb.conf file for the encryption.
2. the user who is connecting to the samba share, must have a valid
user/group ID on the linux box and his info must be reflected in
/etc/samba/smbpasswd. Check 'man smbpasswd' command to add users.
To make this story short, read :
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/index.html
It is a complete O'Reilly's SAMBA book online which will answer al your
questions for free :-). It is illustrated and easy to read. A must-read for
all samba users.

PS SWAT is nice, but it is more beneficial to learn all config files with
vi editor. At least you will know where they are and how they function.

I started the server with nmbd -D and smbd -D and I can see they are
running, also I can stop and start them in SWAT.
