I have the official 2.2.6 RPM for RH 8 installed, and can mount windows shares on my linux box. I can't browse the samba shares from my windows machine though. When I go to Start->Run, "\\<hostname>" I'm given this error message.

"The account is unauthorized to login from this station."

I created and smbpasswd entry with smbpasswd -a. There are no error messages in log.nmbd or log.smbd, and the log files for particular machines (log.jgeorgeson in the case of the windows box) are empty. The only changes I have made from the default smb.conf file are to specify the workgroup and server string.

Just to make sure it's not my firewall, I disabled iptables and get the same results. I can ping each direction by name, and my linux box shows up in computers near me under my network places in W2K.
