Is the samba machine participating in WINS or is it acting as a WINS server?

Also, where in smb.conf are you defining the name of the machine?

I changed the passwords to match but I still get the same error message when
I run the smbclient. The funny thing is that if I used Windoblose Exploiter
and type in the IP address, the computer shows up in it's workgroup, but the
IP is listed as the computer name. hat could be causing this?

Thank You,

I had this problem once when I was only trying to
share my home directories, using encryption set to
yes. I had to create user accounts on the unix side
using the smbpasswd utility. The syntax is smbpasswd
-a <user id>. Set the password with smbpasswd <user
id> to whatever is on the windows side, and you should
be able to see the shares. Hope this helps...
