I am green as grass with BSD, thanks for this list...

For my first learning platform I am building a "storage vault" for serving
word processing forms to a couple of win98 boxes.  The build was the two
floppy method, installed through my SMC barricade and DSL feed.  It is a
classic P100Mhz, 32MB clone with a dated Seagate 3GB(?) "floppy" tape drive.
I did not load any X on this one.

At first glance the following will look like a SAMBA question but I think it
really isn't.

A Win98 box can see the server in its "network neighborhood" but when you
attempt to browse for files you receive a dialog box asking for password...
While trying to sort that out I ran the "testparm" program for SAMBA.  It
returns a bunch of info and this error:

"ERROR: lock directory /var/spool/lock should have permissions 0755 for
security and browsing to work"

And that folks is beyond me...   Suggestions?

Regards,
Paul Comte

PS This is the first really fun thing I've done with PC's since multi-user
DOS (ten years ago?)
