Is your Windows NT server's domain name "linux-net" ?

I am not sure if Windows NT servers will take connections with an IP
address, have you tried "-r <server's netbios name>" instead of "-r <ip
address>"?

Can you access the Windows NT server with smbclient from the linux machine:

$ smbclient -L <servers netbios name> -I 192.168.0.1 -U Administrator

If you can't get a connection, you have to fix that first. Do you have
any firewalls running? You may want to try:
# service shorewall clear
if you aren't sure.

I see you have no winbind configuration in your config file. Winbind
will allow you to use the usernames from your Windows domain under
linux. Mandrake 9.1 has support for winbind, in fact you can set it up
during installation (use the "Advanced" button in the screen where you
enter the root password).

Depending on how many Windows workstations you have, it may be simpler
to migrate the server to linux first, then you don't have to mess with
winbind at all, you can use LDAP instead.
