I'm not familiar with Komba, but I do set up Samba networks. In Komba there's probably a place to send your username and password. Make sure that is correct.
In your Samba Configuration, I believe you need to tell it to send encrypted passwords. If memory serves me correctly GNU/Linux won't connect to Windows unless you do this. You might try mounting some Windows shares by hand to make sure you can indeed see the Windows box and that Samba is set up correctly. Then once you know it is definitely working, play with any specifics of Komba. Following is a command to mount a Windows share: mount -t smbfs -o username=USERNAME //WINDOWS-IP-ADDRESS/SHARE-NAME /mnt/LINUX-MOUNT-POINT If all is working correctly, you will be prompted for a password before the mount actually occurs.
