I _know_ this has been asked multiple times and I _know_ that I've done a
bunch of the asking. Unfortunately, noone has given me a good definitive
answer yet. I've gotton pointers to archives that I cannot find and
approximate answers but nothing concrete.
Here's the deal. I have a working network comprised of a linux server and 2
win98 machines. The network is working correctly, I can ping all three
machines, ppp works, diald works, and all is well and good. I want to turn
on windows networking so that I can share resources on my windows network.
I added netbeui protocol to both machines and added the file printing and
sharing service. As soon as I boot the win98 machines, diald is triggered.
Here are my questions:
1) Why, exactly, does netbeui generate udp packets that trigger diald?
2) How do I suppress this so that diald ignores the damned broadcasts?
3) Do I even need netbeui to share resources on my win98 machines?
Thanks for a quick response!
