Bryan,
Samba is the answer......
Microsoft uses Netbios over some other protocol to communicate shares between machines.
Netbios over TCP/IP,Netbios over IPX/SPX, Netbios over NetBeui
Linux and Samba speak TCP/IP so I would recommend installing TCP/IP on all of the
WIN95 machines
as well as netbios....Get rid of the other protocols unless you need them for some
reason.....( ie...Netbeui, IPX/SPX)
Samba is well documented and easy to configure, unless you involve NT. :>
The physical layout of your network wasn't very specific, but unless routers are
involved, everything should be cake......
Installing TCP/IP and netbios should solve the Win95 browsing problem, and installing
Samba will make Linux look just like a Windows box through "Network Neighborhood"
