At a conference recently I noted that Windows 2000 would not browse sync with Samba. I imagine that this may be a related problem. I am hoping that someone out there can take a closer look at the browse sync issues.
I just don't have time right now, but I will when I start writing docs about the browse sync mechanism. Soon.
