Can you connect from the very same linux box? Open a terminal and do a
smbmount '\\thislinuxbox\myshare' /mnt/floppy -o
username=a_valid_samba_username
Does it work?
>From the same command prompt do
smbclient -L thislinuxbox
don't give any passwd and watch for
Workgroup Master

Painfull question: are you allowed to reboot the PDC? :)
