I would think Darryl is right. A good way to test whether your windows box
is talking is with the smbclient command. On your Linux box just issue
"smbclient -U <username> -L <windows host name>" and then enter the
password at the prompt. If you have a valid setup and valid
username/password pair, you should see something like this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> smbclient -U david -L ripper
Password:
Domain=[RIPPER] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]

        Sharename       Type      Comment
        ---------       ----      -------
        IPC$            IPC       Remote IPC
        SharedDocs      Disk      Shared Docs on Ripper
        print$          Disk      Printer Drivers
        GenericT        Printer   Generic / Text Only
        E               Disk
        ADMIN$          Disk      Remote Admin
        C$              Disk      Default share

Hope that helps.....

Here is the response from the suggestion above:

mymachine:~ # smbclient -U [EMAIL PROTECTED] -L BSMITH2
Password: example2
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

Phil,

It appears to be one of two things. (1) the username/password pair of [EMAIL PROTECTED] with password example2 is not (a) recognized or (b) allowed remote access to hostname BSMITH2; or (2) Windows firewall is not providing an exception to blocking windows file and print sharing requests. Check control panel -> windows firewall -> exceptions tab.
