But if I can't migrate, then how the hell can I replace W98? This seems to me to be very American-style thinking: if you imagine something will be the case, then it will be the case. The world doesn't work like that. I have a W98 machine that I need to share files with other machines on the network, and no amount of wishful thinking will change that. > > >> but if you can't get > >> cifs to work right, you can recompile the kernel to enable smbfs.
