Hi I am trying to connect to a share on a windows 98 machine with smbclient. I can connect to the win98 share from another 98 machine but not from smbclient. The first example shows a connection from linux to the win98 machine The second example show a connection from linux to the win2k machine The win2k connection works fine .. Anyone knows what i am doing wrong .. Thanks Alex example 1 -------------------- smbclient //192.168.3.205/data added interface ip=216.208.129.98 bcast=216.208.129.127 nmask=255.255.255.224 added interface ip=192.168.3.1 bcast=192.168.3.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 session request to 192.168.3.205 failed (Called name not present) session request to 192 failed (Called name not present) session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Called name not present) example 2 --------------------- [root@linux /]# smbclient //192.168.3.128/toto added interface ip=216.208.129.98 bcast=216.208.129.127 nmask=255.255.255.224 added interface ip=192.168.3.1 bcast=192.168.3.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 session request to 192.168.3.128 failed (Called name not present) session request to 192 failed (Called name not present) Password:
