Here is my smb.conf file.
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the

## Basic Server Settings
##
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: REDHAT4
workgroup = TVGBCAST
netbios name = laxbcastdns01
# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
server string =
# This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict
# connections to machines which are on your local network. The
# following example restricts access to two C class networks and
# the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see
# the smb.conf man page
hosts allow = 10. 127.0.0.1
# Uncomment this if you want a guest account, you must add this to
/etc/passwd
# otherwise the user "nobody" is used
guest account = pcguest
# this tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
# that connects
# log file = /var/log/smbd.%m
# How much information do you want to see in the logs?
# default is only to log critical messages
; log level = 1
# Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb).
max log size = 550
# Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See
# security_level.txt for details.
security = user
# Using the following line enables you to customise your configuration
# on a per machine basis. The %m gets replaced with the netbios name # of the
machine that is connecting.
# Note: Consider carefully the location in the configuration file of
# this line. The included file is read at that point.
; include = /etc/samba/smb.conf.%m
# Most people will find that this option gives better performance.
# See speed.txt and the manual pages for details
# You may want to add the following on a Linux system:
# SO_RCVBUF?92 SO_SNDBUF?92
; socket options = TCP_NODELAY
# Configure Samba to use multiple interfaces
# If you have multiple network interfaces and want to limit smbd will #
use, list the ones desired here. Otherwise smbd & nmbd will bind to all #
active interfaces on the system. See the man page for details.
# interfaces = 10.4.100.2/24 10.3.100.2/24 10.7.50.1
# Should smbd report that it has MS-DFS Capabilities? Only available
# if-with-msdfs was passed to ./configure
; host msdfs = yes
##
## Network Browsing
##
# set local master to no if you don't want Samba to become a
master
# browser on your network. Otherwise the normal election rules
apply
local master = yes
# OS Level determines the precedence of this server in master browser
# elections. The default value (20) should be reasonable
os level = 65
# Domain Master specifies Samba to be the Domain Master
Browser. This
# allows Samba to collate browse lists between subnets. Don't
use this
# if you already have a Windows NT domain controller doing this
job
domain master = yes
# Preferred Master causes Samba to force a local browser election on
startup
# and gives it a slightly higher chance of winning the election
preferred master = yes
browse list = yes
##
## WINS & Name Resolution
##
# If you have multiple network interfaces and want to limit smbd will #
use, list the ones desired here. Otherwise smbd & nmbd will bind to all #
active interfaces on the system. See the man page for details.

## WINS & Name Resolution
##
# Windows Internet Name Serving Support Section:
# WINS Support - Tells the NMBD component of Samba to enable
it's WINS Server
wins support = yes
# WINS Server - Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS
Client
# Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS
Client, but NOT both
; wins server = w.x.y.z
# WINS Proxy - Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on #
behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be # at least
one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.
; wins proxy = no
# DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS
names # via DNS nslookups.
# dns proxy = 10.7.50.1
# remote announce = 10.3.100.5 10.6.50.1 10.4.100.1 10.7.50.1
remote announce = yes
announce as = NT Server
