I have tried everything I can think of, including all of the remedies in
the diagnostics site.  I always get the following error when I try to
connect to my SAMBA server:

[root at pdslnx /root]# smbclient -L PDSLNX
Added interface ip=192.168.1.1 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
session request to PDSLNX failed
session request to *SMBSERVER failed

I can connect to my other machines (W95 and NT4).  I can the networks on
the W95 and NT and see my server, but I can't connect to it.  The 95
says PDSLNX is not accessible.  The specified computer did not receive
your request.  The NT says PDSLNX is not accessible.  The remote
computer is unavailable.

The samba log shows:

and a lot more stuff.

I am using encrypted passwords according to the instructions in the
documentation.  Any ideas?
