"myserver" is a linux box running samba, but connecting to a windows box
works too, I believe.
The way SMB networking works[1] is that one computer on the network
declares itself the master browser. Other computers look for the MB
and ask it for the list of computers on the network.
On your "myserver" running the samba server, do you have its firewall
open for all the Samba ports (both server and client)?

Yes, I think all the right ports are open (/etc/sysconfig/iptables):
# Samba [[[[
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT
# ]]]]
