Well, I've seen something about this in the past. only two things pop to mind...
1) try dropping the firewall to make *sure* that that is not the problem. 2) Doing a little googling, I found a couple of people for whom the solution was to uninstall the TCP/IP protocol,.reboot, and reconfigure it. But on the good side, from even a cursory googling, on "linux dns windows 98" it appears that you aren't the only person suffering this problem. CJK On Sun, 2003-06-08 at 13:46, Jerry M.
