Hi!

1) vsftpd comes with an own daemon, no more xinetd. Do the following 
(the first one is optional but highly recommended for security reasons):

in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf change "anonymous_enable" to "NO"
/etc/rc.d/inet.d/vsftpd start
chkconfig --level 345 vsftpd on

If this does not help, you also might want to take a look at your 
firewall (iptables) configuration to see whether it accepts connections 
on that port.

2) I made the experience that you have to be logged on in Win98 as the 
network user and password you will want to access a share on the samba 
server. This means already at the Win98 network login screen (at the 
very begin after booting is completed) you have to state exactly the 
user and password that the samba server requires to access the 
respective share. Therefore Win98 will also not ask the password again 
when accessing.

Best Regards,
Benedikt.
