No still not browsable in windows - I've an old machine with linux
(Ubuntu) so I powered this up - this finds the share with no problem but
the name was shown as "PI-MEDIA" (with the quotes) - I've edited the
samba config: 

workgroup = "STEVES"
netbios name = "PI-MEDIA"

to remove the quotes round the workgroup and netbios name (I.E.
workgroup = STEVES) and it now works.

It had to be something simple - at least if anyone else has a problem
we'll know how to fix it.

Thanks for the help

Steve
