Thanks for the info you all provided. Now i have a question on samba shares. My win98 box can see the sa\mba share but wants a password.

I have sygate running on the win98 box for now to share the net access from the cable modem, it is supplying an ip go the linux box via dhcp. Can someont tell me where to look to see what is causing all this traffic. the lights on the hub are going 90 to nuthing. i can unplug one cat5 cable from hub an in a littlw while hook it back an the traffic is stopped an i have internet access. then sometimes even that will not work. Im at a loss for now as what to look for thanks in advance for helping You need to find out what's causing all of the traffic. Use tcpdump on your Linux machine to get that information: tcpdump -i eth0 will show everything going over the first ethernet connection. -- Steve Philp Network Administrator Advance Packaging Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Either download a network analyzer such as Ethereal for Linux or Sniffer Pro (nai.com) for Windows and drop it on the appropriate box. Either should tell you exactly what you need to know!
