Windows Browsing via PPP

I have pppd 2.3.7 providing dial-up service to my WIndows clients. The
same box running pppd is also running Samba's nmbd as a WINS server.
All addresses (DNS, WINS, netmask, etc.) are correctly populated on the
client as verified by winipcfg and ipconfig. The clients login using
the respective login/password which matches the Linux server. They have
only TCP/IP installed, no NETBEUI or IPX/SPX. They are able to perform
a find-computer and access SMB shares however when they go into network
neighborhood, they're unable to browse the network. Now, several years
ago on an old Slackware server, I actually had everything working
beautifully. Is anyone aware of any caveat that may negatively affect
browsing?
Thanks.
