  Hello my friends.

  Looks like I had seen some light with this small issue.

  Normally wet u have a PDC in your network, with Winboxes, AD, NT4, u
must have at least 1 Master Browser rigth?

  Well at home I have just 2 winboxes xp pro sp3, every time I setup a
samba server, nomally I stop the computer browser services of my
clients, in this case my 2 winboxes, this way samba could quickly
became the master browser of my network.

  Like I told u before, one of my issues is that my domain name
doesn't appear at my network, just the "workgroup" of the winboxes
machines, every time I try to browse my networks with my winboxes, it
took a while to answer or some times just stop working and finally,
won't show me my samba domain.

  If I read the nmbd.log, it tells me that samba is the master
browser... cool but is not happening.

  Last night I decide to enable one of my winboxes "Computer Browser"
service and boom, I could browse my network and see my domain.

  This tell me that samba is having issues trying to handle the
network browser, right now I could not add  my box to the doman, but
at least I could see my domain there.

  I follow the manuals Dale at work and no issue here, even that I
have 2 domains running, but as soon as I start samba, it appears at my
network.

  The issue is at home.

  Well If u have some tips guys about how to troubleshoot this I will
appreciated.

  Thanks all for your help and time!!!
To ensure that samba is the master browser against xp machines, I use
[global]
   domain master = Yes
   os level = 65
   announce version = 5.9

This has always worked for me.
