Look at your /etc/lmhosts and /etc/hosts
On a home network all of your networked boxes should be listed.
When in doubt, do a Google search for "Diagnosing your Samba Server".
You will get a really useful site that will be way more help than I can
be via e-mail. And, by the way, I much prefer LinNeighbood to Konq's.
version of network neighborhood. It is waaaaay faster to connect to my
networked boxes--my experience with Konq is that it takes a long time--I
think it has to do with the way it resolves machine names.
