I do not have it setup as a wins server, wasnt sure if i needed to or not. And when i turn on pings with my firewall, yes I can ping my PDC.

Thanks for the help so far.

Did you set your PDC's IP as WINS server on your XP box?
(And, of course, can you ping the PDC from your XP machine?)

Below is my smb.conf file. I have already
applied the necessary XP pro registry patch. I have followed the
directions as outlined @
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/eserver/tutorials/samba.html and
have also referenced the Samba-PDC how-to. Any suggestions?
