 Did you try hitting enter? If so, is there an entry in the /etc/hosts (or the 
DNS server) for the clients? (I don't think you need to use lmhosts but it 
doesn't harm) Do you use securtiy=share or user? I would use share if you are 
only working with 9x machines. Use workroup= instead of domain= in this 
case. Do you have an entry guest account=nobody in your global section? And 
guest ok or guest only=yes in the shares section? If you are using user level 
security or you have no guest account you probably need entries for the users 
and/or machines in your /etc/passwd as Karl already wrote.

				Hope this helps,

				Leonard.
