That's a broadcast address. Anyone with IP address 192.168.0.x should see the packet. NBNS is Netbios Name Server or something like that. What I don't know is does SMB run on top of NBNS? In any case, it looks like your problem might be that for some reason your linux box cannot or will not see those packets that Windows is sending to 192.168.0.255.
