Thanks for the tip. That's not the cause of the issue then :-/

At this point, I can finally get XP to show shared folders if I first
try to connect to them blindly through Run > "\\srv\share".

There were a few things I noticed along the way:

- "restart smbd" works, but "restart nmbd" doesn't. OTOH,
"/etc/init.d/smbd restart" works... and "/etc/init.d/nmbd restart" as
well. Go figure

- apparently, we must remove package "libpam-smbpass", and install
"smbfs" and "winbind"

- /etc/nsswitch.conf requires adding "wins" to "hosts"

- I added the following to a share, with no idea if they're really
needed:
[share]
[...]
available = yes
public = yes
writable = yes

Thank you.
