I've done some testing
from the Samba server, 'smbclient -B 192.168.0.255'
samba returns a name query failed to find-error. All names are in
all LMHOSTS and HOSTS files on both Win Linux machines. All other
smbclient tests worked fine. Can see shares from Linux on Win, only
reverse not (from Win to Linux). Can also connect to a Wins share from
Samba srvr. It seems that the Linux box doesn't respond to name
queries. How can I fix it?
Here is my smb.conf file...

Help Please
When I try to connect from Win XP Pro to my Samba
Server, I get this error...
"Samba is not accessible. You might not have
permissiont o use this network resource." (attached error gif).
I have a smbpasswd file created from
/etc/passwd, configured exactly like my XP username and password.
Thanks
