Unable to Browse Linux Shares

by yoginis . Updated 23 years, 3 months ago

My Network consists of 4 windows 98, 3 windows 2000 all connected as WorkGroups.
Configuration of Samba machine :
SAmba version 2.0.7
RedHat version 7.1
Samba is able to ping and see shares of other machines..but whenver other machines try to access Linux Machine..error shown is Network path not found.
> Tried the following options :
1. Login and Password of other machines are the same as those in Samba.
2. For smb.conf
Tried using security = user , security = share,
public = ok…
3. Also tried removing NetBUI from 1 Windows 98 and tried connecting to Linux..but same problem persists.
4. hosts.allow : All hosts allowed ,
hosts.deny : empty.
The Linux MAchine can connect to the Internet as well as access web pages of other machine from browser.
Pls could someone give any suggestion on what could be wrong.
