O.K., I've now got a RH 5.0 i386 machine answering and connecting incoming
Windows-95 PPP connections (thanks Eric Smith and Dan Cyr). The only
Win-95 service running is TCP/IP (no IPX, no NETBEUI), so users can POP
their mail, telnet to machines on the LAN, etc.
The next hurdle is to allow Network Neighborhood access to other Win-95
machines on the LAN.
--------- ------------ --------------
| remote | phone line | Linux | ethernet | Other Win-95 |
| Win-95 | -----------| RH 5.0 |----------| peer-to-peer |
| machine | | PPP Server | | machines |
--------- ------------ --------------
>From the "remote Win-95" machine, I can access the Samba share that the
"Linux PPP Server" provides. The Linux Server is providing the remote
machine with a list of other Win-95 machine names, but I cannot access
them. I try, and the remote machine eventually times-out saying the
machine is not accessable.
Since I'm not running IPX or NetBEUI, I thought all the NetBIOS would be
transported via TCP/IP. Is there a possibility that my Linux Server is
not broadcasting these packets across the rest of the network?
If anyone knows the answer, I'd appreciate the assistance.
Thanks,
Mike
