I am running FreeBSD 4.2-S and KDE 2.0.1. I have one other Windows ME machine 
on my LAN. 

To access it, I have to create a share on the Windows box. Any type of share. 
Just right click on a folder and choose 'Sharing'. On that machine, I've got 
all of its drives sharing. 

If I want to access one, I have to open up Konqueror, the KDE web browser, 
and in the URL put: smb://wks02 wks02 is the name of the system. 

I have local DNS running and have told Windows ME to look for NetBIOS over 
DNS. I havent gotten file transfer to work very reliably, but it might be a 
setting of mine.
