No need for this. Below is my full mb.conf that works with Win95/98/XP
and also WinNT/W2000 without any problems. I left the comments on purpose.
I think that the relevant part is this:
# This controls whether this share is seen in the list of available
# shares in a net view and in the browse list.
browseable = yes
lm announce = auto
lm interval = 150
