Did you check the /etc/smb.conf file allready?  Think there is an option in it to enable that

Can you see the SME when browsing network neighbourhood? Have you enabled file and print sharing on any of the win98 ME boxes? When you go into network neighbourhood does the domain appear? Have you made sure that you have set the Workgroup name and the domain name to the same in the Win98 ME boxes?
