Disable file and printer sharing server only, in Windows 98

As the title says, I would like to disable the file and printer sharing

server ONLY, in Windows 98. When disabling the "File and Printer
Sharing" binding with TCP/IP, it seems to disable the client and the
server - I can't access shares on other computers, and they can't
access shares on mine.

The reason for this is that I have a computer connected to 2 networks.
I would like the pc to be able to read shares on one network, and I
would like the second network only to see shares on the computer
itself. So I would like a way to have the SMB server and client running

on one network card, and the client only on the other.

Any ideas are appreciated. Alternatively, is there a Samba client for
Windows 98? I'm sure that would do the trick.


Many thanks

I don't think you can do it with windows on its own. It's either
client *and* server or neither. You could, of course, achieve
something approaching what you want with some firewall software.


Jim.

Thanks for the reply Jim. A firewall might be the only solution,
indeed. Thank you.
