samba - Nov 1999 - Windows can't see Linux share

I have (right now) a 2 workstation LAN with one Linux box (RedHat
6.1) and a Windows 98 box.  The Linux box will mount the 98 share with no
problem, but the 98 box can't even see the Linux box, let alone its shares.
I've
used samba with SunOS and FreeBSD and never had a problem. I have this strange
feeling I'm overlooking one little thing. Any suggestions? Please reply to
ted@liii.com, as I am not a subscriber of this list.

Ted -- If you havn't already, add netbios name=<server's host
name> and
workgroup=<client's work group>, restart Samba, and see how that
affects
the symptom.
