I have OS level set to 65 (although 33 *should* beat win95 in 
browser elections).  Does your linux box stay up all the time, oe 
are you shutting it down every day?  The other thing you can do is 
turn off the clients, ie, in File and Printer Sharing properties 
(under Network Properties) set browse master to Disable (the 
default is Auto).
