Can you connect with smbclient? Ie:

        $ host pdc
        pdc has address 192.168.1.100
        $ nmblookup -A 192.168.1.100
        Looking up status of 192.168.1.100
        PDC <00> - B <ACTIVE>
        PDC <03> - B <ACTIVE>
        PDC <20> - B <ACTIVE>
        ..__MSBROWSE__. <01> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
        DOMAIN <00> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
        DOMAIN <1b> - B <ACTIVE>
        DOMAIN <1c> - B <ACTIVE>
        DOMAIN <1d> - B <ACTIVE>
        DOMAIN <1e> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
        $ smbclient -L pdc -I 192.168.1.100 -U root
        Password: {your password}
        Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[NT] Server=[WinNT]

But it would not let you map to the shares?

Are you running nmbd/smbd on localhost? I'll bet that Konquerer uses the
browser.dat file built by nmbd over time.

This is a WinNT 4.0 server, right? What service packs are applied?
