Sounds like a permissions issue more than a language
issue. I'll assume that you went through all the basic
connectivity troubleshooting steps as well. ie - yes
the machines can talk to each other over tcp/ip, yes
the LMHOSTS/WINS/DNS naming system works, yes this
machine is on the same subnet and workgroup, yes the
client and host machine have valid identical user
accounts set up, etc. If not, start there. If you have
done that already, what else is in the error logs? I
have my samba set up to log each individual client
that connects, that will help to track down any errors
you are receiving. 

Like so: log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m

The other tool I've used to track down samba issues is
ethereal to snoop packets sent back and forth. Apart
from some random unimplemented stuff win2k and samba
have been getting along fairly well for me.

Anyway, if you haven't sorted it out already, why
don't you forward your smb.conf file and any other
errors you're getting from this machine when you try
and connect it.
