OK, now I'm confused. I've been semi-following this thread and all answers
given to you seem correct. This last P.S. has confused me. OR you are
confused.

SMB has NOTHING to do with IP Networking, and EVERYTHING to do with Windows
networking. I've never used NIS.

Now the real question is: What EXACTLY do you mean 'talk to each other'?

Talking to each other is as simple as using 'ping' to test responses. Are
they at least doing that? If not, anything else you want to do is moot until
that is fixed.

If you want to get peer-to-peer going it's a TOTALLY different story and
doesn't really relate to your original post.

Please post back and clarify clearly what it is exactly you're trying to do.
