<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT>When I spent time networking Win98 and Win2K boxes,
in order for the 98's to access a share on the 2K server, the server had to
have a user created for each 98 user, and the username has to be the same as
in win98. This is the same as someone else said on the list, but I think you
misinterpreted what they said when you tried switching to Client for MS
Networks. No matter how you log on, whether it's locally, to a domain,
whatever, you've only got one username, so that username has to be present on
the Samba box in order to gain access. Rather, that is what I think is going
on here, from what I've read. I can't say for sure though, as I have not
worked much at all with Samba. Hope this helps though.</DIV>
