I'm having an issue connecting from my linux box to my Windows 98
machnie via smbclient.

cfowler at linux:~/Mov/1> smbclient -L 192.168.1.107 -U cfowler
session request to 192.168.1.107 failed (Called name not present)
session request to 192 failed (Called name not present)
session request to *SMBSERVER failed (Called name not present)


I can connect fine from my Windows XP machine.  My desktop is SuSE 9.1. 
Is there something special I nede to configure to allow smb from Linux
to connect to Windows 98?

Chris
