What I've done so far:
Studied man samba
Connected to my parents XP box on my LAN (two different connections, even).
root@omega-fleet root]# smbclient -L 64.131.112.121
added interface ip=192.168.1.11 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
added interface ip=192.168.1.10 bcast=192.168.1.255
The one thing I missed...I'M behind a router (Linksys DSL/Cable 4-Port router).

As I recall your error was called name not present, yes?
I am not sure what is doing this.
To troubleshoot this, I would make sure that your host resolution is working
right. The parameter:
[global]
name resolve order = lmhosts wins bcast hosts
determines how things are looked up.
