DLinux is the netbios name you put...try first to access it via \\IPADDR\sharename (in your case David?)

ZoneAlarm is smart and depending on security levels will block SMB. I think LOW is the only level that it let's SMB thru. I would simply turn it off to eliminate ZA as the problem.

Expected...smbclient and smb server are different and mutually exclusive.
I would suggest that you 1st make sure the necessary smb components are running. Then try to access it via the windows exploder to browse to it. If that isn't working then put the ipaddr in the "address" for windows file exploder and see if that will bring up your share.
SAMBA isn't the easiest beast to get to run with manual config...my SUSE Pro box using Yast is hard enough. Use man pages and default configs and you will eventually succeed.
