OK, your TCP/IP connection is good.  Now to the fun part.

Have you tried:  smbclient -L asus

This is good.  It has worked out that asus is at 192.168.1.3

This is probably an authentication problem, perhaps
encrypted password.  Do the same command again with
the -d3 parameter to get debugging info.

If the problem is occuring because win98 wants an encrypted 
password (which is likely), you have two options.  Turn off
that feature on win98 or tell smbclient to use encryption.

Cheers,
Steven
