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
# ]]]]
