A Windows 98 machine of mine can not access samba shares after the samba server was upgraded to F9. It worked OK before the upgrade.

The samba logs say:

[2008/06/20 13:45:23,  0] lib/util_sock.c:matchname(1670)
   matchname: host name/address mismatch: ::ffff:192.168.0.93 !=
engraver.domain.avtechpulse.com
[2008/06/20 13:45:23,  0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_name(1791)
   Matchname failed on engraver.domain.avtechpulse.com ::ffff:192.168.0.93

The "::ffff:" may be the source of confusion. The DNS should be OK:

do you have restrictions in smb.conf that any of this would matter? i.e.
do you have 'hosts allow' or 'bind interfaces' type statements in
smb.conf?

Well, I removed the "hosts allow" statement. I no longer get these error messages - I get silent failures now. That is, the W98 box can not use any of the shares. It gives authentication errors and requests passwords for IPC$.

It works fine for Windows 2000 clients.

There's nothing useful in the samba logs... so I'm not sure where the problem is.
