I gave it a go at my system. I used the command smbmount //Jeff/c
/mnt/jeff -U tastin -I 169.254.100.2 -N and found my windows98 harddrive
mounted at a remote linux box and responding to an ls command. Just share
out the portion of your drive you want and use it happily. It's a tad
akward, but works fine and fast on 10mbit ethernet. Hope this helps.
