Try pinging the ubuntu server via ip address. If that works, then try

Thanks for the help. I can connect through its IP address (I could
already work with SSH and HTTP), but it doesn't work with the NetBIOS name:
"\\ubuntu\share - The network path was not found."
If you know Ubuntu 10.04, could there be some security that prevents
Samba from working?
My servers are pure debian, so no I don't know of Ubuntu specific tweaks.
I'd try to enable wins in samba and raise its os level (though it should
already be higher than xp), but it could also be that xp refuses to
revert to netbios name resolution (i.e. broadcast). I've seen this
behaviour once, but can't remember right now what it was exactly...
HTH
P.S.: try to respond to the list, or you'll lose potential help :)
