If the FreeBSD machine is set up as the primary domain controller, it needs
to be the network browser.  The windows machines by default, are set with
the Browse Master setting to "ON".  They will compete for network browsing
with the FreeBSD machine and will force an election (which the FreeBSD
machine may be losing).  In windows 98, you can go to networking in Control
panel and click on Properties for File and Print sharing.  In Win2k and XP
go to Control Panel| Administrative Tools | Services.  Under services look
for "Computer Browser" and set this to manual.  I'm not sure if it will
solve your problem but I had some of the same problems and this worked for
me.

Good Luck
