OK, thanks. I did run that command.

I'll have to do some reading on smbclient, but here's a couple of results:
$ smbclient --list Tehogee1

the above was running the command against the machine itself

[cj@tehogee1 samba]$ smbclient --list StudioPC

Connection to StudioPC failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

StudioPC is a machine name on my network which I can see when I run the smbk4
GUI, this is the machine that can't list the shares - perhaps this is why?

[cj@tehogee1 samba]$ smbclient --list JULIMOBILE

This is an XP machine also on my lan which smbk4 sees and can list the shares
on, but when I try to list one of the shares, says it can't mount them. In
both these latter cases, smbclient seems to be going out to the internet to
try and do its command, however....
As far as Samba working for some, I do understand. It just never seems to work
for me, and when I've gotten it going, it was never quite rational - just the
result of trying and trying till something works, and by the time it does,
you're not sure what made the difference... I'm trying to force myself to be
more analytical this time.
