If I open my entire network, go to Micro$oft networks, Workgroup and click on my samba server, I get this:
If I go to map the network drive, when I get to the server, it grays out the OK button and shows nothing.
If I map it directly, like \\mhullrichter\homes, I get this:
I also tried \\mhullrichter\mark, which is works with smbclient on the host itself (but not from Windows), I get this:
It's like the host is visible, but not connectible.
PS: Here is what my smb.conf file now looks like, per Bart's suggestion (almost):
[root@mhullrichter samba]# cat smb.conf

I don't really care about the printers (they actually work better from the Windows side), but this is annoying. I must be overlooking something. BTW, I also added user mark to the smbusers file, so I'm lost here....
