I am having a problem with my smbclient connecting to Win 98 SE (UK)
computers on my LAN:

smbclient -L 192.168.1.102
added interface ip=192.168.1.100 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
timeout connecting to 192.168.1.102:139
Connection to 192.168.1.102 failed

Here is my configuration:

3Com cable modem
LinkSys router LAN/WAN
SuSE 7.3

The other (3) computers are using Win 98 SE (UK) with Norton Personal
Firewall. The Win version of Norton FIrewall has a very different interface
than the Mac version that I have been used to. The main reason it is
installed on the Win machines is that my family members are novices and I
don't want one machine spreading a virus/worm/trojan horse to the other
computers on the LAN. I am the only one that can share files/transfer files
to the other computers.

How do I modify Norton Personal Firewall (Win) so I stop getting the above
message?

Cheers,

Brian
