That might be a bad idea – I think Windows likes different names for different things, and I believe it complains if you try setting the domain or workgroup name identically to a PC name. Try having one domain name (on Samba) = workgroup name (on Windows) across all your computers, but different names for each computer. Can you ping the Fedora server by name from the Windows 98 computer? Hope this helps, James. -- E-mail: james@ | That brought a lump to the eye and a tear to the throat. aprilcottage.co.uk | -- "I'm Sorry, I Haven't A Clue", BBC Radio 4 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
