Hi,

Probably should have been doing other things, but decided to have a play with 
this winpopup stuff. 

samserver = my servers netbios name
        - Installed as per site mentioned. 
        - restarted samba
        - From smbclient -M samserver
        - tkpopup popped up

from samserver to my VMware 95 machine
        - smbclient -M vm95
        - nothing

installed "file and print sharing" on 95 machine
        - smbclient -M vm95 (from samserver)
        - winpopup worked! (on vm95)(coincidence??)

>From vm95
        - winpopup to samserver 
        - worked (popped up on samserver)

I am sure this should be useful for something.
