tlug: Samba and NT

[Yong-Ming Hua <yhua@example.com>]

Hi,

     I've got a problem. I installed a NT workstation(preinstalled)
to my office. I am running several Linux servers with Samba daemon
working all right. From windows95/98 when I click Network Icon on
the desktop I can see all those servers of course. And I can log
in.

     Now, from this NT machine I can see other PC's(Microsoft
pals), but not Linux servers!!! 
     When I found that there was no Browser.dll in Winnt\system32\
I enlarged browser.dl_ of i386 into the directry. And pachted the
system with a new service pack(ver.4). But still cannot see Linux.

     If I use LMHOST and search other computers, I can find Linux
but then again I cannot log in. Do you think I have to fiddle with
smb.cnf so that both NT and 95/98 can see the server?( I don't think
so). Or do you think there is something wrong with this NT machine?
As far as win98/95 can see Linux Servers, I am convinced Linux is
okay. But at the same time, I cannot find anything wrong with my
setup with the network protocol stuff in NT. 

     If I could get some clue, or if there are folks who have had
the same trouble, or any info, I would be glad.

     BTW, do you think workgoupe name in Linux should be all capital
letters?(I don't think so either. hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm).

     I am ready to attach the NT network setup captured in a pic,
and also smb.cnf when I need to do so. But now, I just give this
as a general question.

     Thanks in advance.
