It's not very exciting - the Samba server transmits, and then XP waits 30 seconds before replying. >Also, you might want to check the "nmbd" log file as well - there may be >something going on there.

I'm not using nmbd. I don't require browsing to work on this server, and I don't require broadcast name resolution for this to work since I've added a static mapping in my WINS server. Just for fun, I turned on nmbd on my samba server - no dice, and nothing going on in the nmbd log. As near as I can tell, it's not even looking up the name via broadcast. >Hope that helps...
