Hi,

It`s been now almost 2 weeks that I try to browse with
samba on Win2k, but it didn`t work. There is no icon
in the network neighbour of Windows 2000. I read the
O`Reilly book but I don`t even come up with something.
I did everything they say in the troubleshooting
section and everything works, well almost because I
don`t see nothing in the "network neighbour" of my
windows. I am able for example to logged on the
network with the command line ...\\server\share...,
but when I log in my windows environnement, I don't
see nothing in the network neighbour (no icons of the
sever). I have always to clic start - run
-IP_adress_of_the_server. 

I know that it can be a lot of thing that goes wrong,
but I hope maybe somebody had the same problem I have.
(Also,I was wandering if the user on the windows
account has to have the same user name has a unix user
and the same password?) Thanks

p.s. Excuse my english, it's not my natural language.
