(ex 10.0.0. or 192.168. ) Did you set up the password encryption? Did you make use of the smbpasswd -a command to add the user name and password combo to the samba's password lists? A firewall might be a problem as well... If none of this seems to be the problem, please post you smb.conf, or at least portions of it. man smb.conf and man smbpasswd will give the specifics on some of these things. Hope this helps.
