[Samba] no frills samba server

[Glen Kaukola]

Hi,

Since the fast track to replacing my NT domain controller didn't work 
out too well I'm starting with the basics.  Right now I have the 
drafting office setup going from chapter two of the Samba 3 By Example 
book.  My smb.conf is as follows:

#########################3###################
[global]
workgroup = MIDEARTH
security = SHARE

[Plans]
path = /plans
read only = Yes
guest ok = Yes
##############################################

This seems to work fine, but I do have a few concerns.  First of all, 
when I go to the network neighborhood on my client xp machine I see 
nothing there.  I can of course get to the samba share by typing in 
"\\samba\plans" at the run prompt, or by selecting "browse this 
workgroup" or something like that from within network neighborhood.  But 
shouldn't something show up right off the bat within network neighborhood?

Also, the book recommends running smbclient to validate your setup. 
Here's what I get:

###########################################################
root at samba ~]# smbclient -L localhost -U%
Domain=[MIDEARTH] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5]

         Sharename       Type      Comment
         ---------       ----      -------
         Plans           Disk
         IPC$            IPC       IPC Service (Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5)
Domain=[MIDEARTH] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5]

         Server               Comment
         ---------            -------
         SAMBA                Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5
         XP

         Workgroup            Master
         ---------            -------
         MIDEARTH             SAMBA
############################################################

However, according to the book it should look something along the lines 
of this:

#############################################################
root at samba ~]# smbclient -L localhost -U%
Domain=[MIDEARTH] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5]

         Sharename       Type      Comment
         ---------       ----      -------
         Plans           Disk
         IPC$            IPC       IPC Service (Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5)
         ADMIN$          IPC       IPC Service (Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5)

         Server               Comment
         ---------            -------
         SAMBA                Samba 3.0.23c-1.fc5
         XP

         Workgroup            Master
         ---------            -------
         MIDEARTH             SAMBA
#############################################################

So the thing that concerns me at this point is the missing ADMIN$ share. 
  Is that something to worry about?  And if so, what might my problem be 
at this point?


Thanks in advance,
Glen
