Windows usually listens on port 139.  That is the Netbios windows sharing
port.  It could also be a samba server running off UNIX but that is easy to
verify.  If they do not have any windows shares open this will not work.
If it helps this is what nmap returns on my 98 machine

Starting nmap V. 2.03 by Fyodor ([EMAIL PROTECTED], www.insecure.org/nmap/)
Interesting ports on  (192.168.0.122):
Port    State       Protocol  Service
139     open        tcp        netbios-ssn

TCP Sequence Prediction: Class=trivial time dependency
                         Difficulty=0 (Trivial joke)
Remote operating system guess: Windows NT4 / Win95 / Win98

Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 2 seconds
