A browsing problem with a new installation.

I either am installing or have installed Samba 2.0.6 for Alpha onto a
DEC 3000 box named WOODSTOCK and used for development. Woodstock is
running VMS 7.3 and TCPIP ver 5.0.

The problem symptoms are:

1.  Woodstock shows up in Server Manager with the icon showing it as
connected.  The comment "Samba 2.0.6 running on woodstock (OpenVMS)"
2.  Double-clicking or clicking "Computer:shared directories or
properties" results in a network path not found error.
3.  From Network Neighborhood, looking in the domain Woodstock appears
but attempts to connect to my share result in the network path not found
error.
4.  Mapping a drive to woodstock results in network path not found.
5.  Using Run and \\woodstock or it's IP address results in network path
not found.
6.  Using smbclient.exe "-L" <server> returns a list of shares on the
remote server.
7.  Testparm.exe only reports that the locks directory should be created
with 0755 permissions.  The smb.conf file
includes a "force create mode 0755" statement under the locks directory
entry; which is a follow on to a simple "create mode 0755" statement in
previous smb.conf's.

My conjecture is there is a netbios problem related to permissions in
the locks directory.  But how do I fix it?

I'll attach my smb.conf file.
