Out of curiosity, are you running a firewall on the Linux box. I had all
kinds of fun getting the SMB client/server stuff working between my secured
Linux box and a W98 box. IIRC, ports 137-139 need to be fully open between
the 2 machines. It took me 2 hours to find the necessary doco on the
protocol to know what ports are required.
Just a thought...
