I have a question (and possibly a suggestion). You mentioned that "Since the object of using Samba is partly to access a Windows 98 machine,.." What exactly do you mean by "access"? Do you need to connect to the Win98 box to copy/move files between Linux and Win98? Then, can't you use smbclient instead? I remember I was able to use smbclient to connect to Win98 (last done 6 months ago).
