If the windows box is external to the network, (I think you mentioned
this) how is it routed there? VPN? If so NetBIOS won't work. try
mapping to the IP instead.
net use x: \\1.2.3.4\sharename
If not check your firewall setting also, ports 138, 139 I think should
be open. Can you ping the Linux box?
Hope that helps
Todd

Done. Except the example that was in there already said Yes instead of
True, so I used that.
os level = 80
preferred master = Yes
domain master = Yes
Under WINS I checked
Enable LMHOSTS
and
Use NetBIOS setting from the DHCP server
The message that I get is
"Attempting to connect to \\LINUX\LYNN1S..."
"The mapped network drive could not be created because the following
error has occurred:" "The network location cannot be reached. For
information about network troubleshooting, see Windows Help."
