Note that for browsing you need a (pc)guest account on the server side (FreeBSD). The machine should be in \win95\hosts (or what your windir is). Also I recommend to examine the logs in /usr/local/samba/*. I explicitly specify the broadcast address in the nmbd startup line in /etc/rc.local (I don't use inetd.conf to start the daemons). Besides this I recommend to read the INSTALL.txt which is quite instructive and other related docs in the samba directory. > > So what I'm looking for is *specific* information on how to set up both > Samba and the Windows 95 machines to make this work. > > If need be, I can post the specific information on my machines' setup. > > Thanks, > > Matt Gessner, <mgessner@aristar.com> > --Chris Christoph P.
