That's interesting - that command doesn't give any output on EITHER machine....

OK. Update.
It appears that installing "Samba" from the Ubuntu Software Centre doesn't actually install Samba - it installs something else! I've now installed Samba4 from Synaptic and running "sudo netstat -auntp | grep samba" on both machines gives me something like this:

On the laptop:
gordon@gordon-laptop:~$ sudo netstat -auntp | grep samba
[sudo] password for gordon:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1024 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 9168/samba

udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:138 0.0.0.0:* 9169/samba

And on the Netbook:
gordon@gordon-netbook:~$ sudo netstat -auntp |grep samba
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1024 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1933/samba

udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:138 0.0.0.0:* 1934/samba
gordon@gordon-netbook:~$

I still get the same error when trying to access the Netbook from the Laptop....

I now have a problem sharing directories on the Netbook. If I right-click on a directory and choose "Sharing Options" and check the "Share this folder" box it now says : 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: cannot convert name "Everyone" to a SID. Memory allocation error.


Now I would be very greatful for any help with this, as I have been having the same error for a while. I hope somebody can help.
