[Samba] net view can see server, but nmblookup '*' can't find it!

I have an XP Pro box on my LAN, and I'm trying to figure out why
nmblookup '*' can't see it.  I'm writing a script that finds all the
shares on the LAN and mounts them, and it works great except for this
one box.

On another windows box, when I run "net view", the XP box is listed as
I expect.

On my linux box, when I run "nmblookup -A 192.168.0.111" it returns
with the correct data about the XP box's shares.

But on the linux box, when I run "nmblokup '*'", it returns all the
other boxes, linux and windows, except for this one XP box.

Here is the output from "nmblookup -d 10 -A 192.168.0.111".  Can you see
anything that might prevent this box from showing up in "nmblookup '*'"?
