RE: How can I see the AS/400 from my Linux box?

["Brendan Bispham" <midrangel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the problem is not Linux ( with samba) but OS400 V3R7, which doesnt
have Netserver (the Network Neighbourhood that samba connects to). If you
upgrade to V4R2+ you get Netserver, otherwise you might still achieve a
simulation but not with any ease....
