1) please do not cross-post.
2) AFAIK samba does not support netbios. samba does smb/TCP. Either your
local network runs under smb/TCP, and you should proceed with samba, or it
runs under netbios (i.e. servers run "Novel-netware", in which case samba
is a wrong tool for you.
3) try  configuring the samba with "swat". It is much easier for a newbie
