I think not. I could connect to Windows Neighborhood using 'xsmb' (look in
http://linux.box.sk). Try these :
[global]
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name
workgroup = LINUX
"replace LINUX with whatever workgroup in your network"
# This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict
# connections to machines which are on your local network. The
# following example restricts access to two C class networks and
# the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see
# the smb.conf man page
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 192.168.2. 127.
"I'm using 192.168.8."
# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See
# security_level.txt for details.
security = user
"change user to share"
# You may wish to use password encryption. Please read
# ENCRYPTION.txt, Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation.
# Do not enable this option unless you have read those documents
; encrypt passwords = yes
; smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd
"remove the ; sign"
# Configure remote browse list synchronisation here
# request announcement to, or browse list sync from:
# a specific host or from / to a whole subnet (see below)
; remote browse sync = 192.168.3.25 192.168.5.255
# Cause this host to announce itself to local subnets here
; remote announce = 192.168.1.255 192.168.2.44
"I'm using 192.168.8.255"
# Enable this if you want Samba to be a domain logon server for
# Windows95 workstations.
domain logons = yes
