my respected samba team members:
I'am one of your truth samba user,using samba (RedHat7.0's samba
2.0.7 and RedHat6.0's samba 2.0.5a) to connect to win98se,
i found it a problem,i can connect win98se mount share resource to linux'
host,browser the share resource read/write it's files,but the
window98 can hardly(very very a few times can)browse linux's host,even saw
the it's ircon in windows98's net neihbour it can not
login(displaied data erro),I was modified smb.conf severiar times(again and
again,nearly mad)but it desn't work,so i guess does it with
problem in this programe?(just guess,not sure),cause of this l mail the smb.conf
with this letter, if the smb.conf with no problem then the
program maybe contain a bug in it (i am not wish to hear that----i would rather
you laugh at me as a fool than tell me it's a bug).if this
is not a bug,i am sorry, i'm sorry to borther you,i am sorry to waste of
your time to read a fool's letter.and i am expecting you to corretc t
he smb.conf for me.
By the way the the two hosts with windows98se can connetc to each other
freely,use two Rel8139 net cards,(there may no hard
ware with problem in this connection,does it right?)

My smb.conf:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
"testparm"
# to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors.

# All NetBIOS names must be resolved to IP Addresses

means use the unix
# system gethostbyname() function call that will use either /etc/hosts OR
# DNS or NIS depending on the settings of /etc/host.config, /etc/nsswitch.conf
# and the /etc/resolv.conf file. "host" therefore is system
configuration
# dependant. This parameter is most often of use to prevent DNS lookups
# in order to resolve NetBIOS names to IP Addresses. Use with care!
# The example below excludes use of name resolution for machines that are NOT
# on the local network segment
# - OR - are not deliberately to be known via lmhosts or via WINS.

# behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be
# at least one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.
