run the command "net view \\linuxsmbserver" where "\\linuxsmbserver" is the
netbios name of your linux server running samba.
If you get "The network path was not found" or a similar error, then try the
command "net view \\xx.xx.xx.xx" where "xx.xx.xx.xx" is the IP address of
the linux server. If this fails, then making the samba a WINS server will
not help. If the shares are displayed making the samba server a WINS server
and forcing all windows machines to use it can help.
If you get "access denied" then it is just an access control issue.
