I have a question for you:
Have you either:
a) hard-coded your WINS server IP (samba machine) into your windows clients?
b) setup your DHCP options to set your WINS server to your Samba Server's IP address.
The easy way to check this is to run
ipconfig /all
from your windows clients, and see if the line:
Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : www.xxx.yyy.zzz
points to your Samba WINS server.
If it does not, therein lies your problem and solution
Enjoy!

Unable to resolve my problem after long time of reading and searching I decide to ask for help to the experts. The problems is that there is no browse list even thought everything works fine. I can share files with others machines but don't see anything on network neighborhood. We use the OpenBSD 3.6 box with Samba 2.2 only for DNS and Wins. Please Help!
Here is my smb.conf file.
