Please try to be a little clearer: Is LINUX01, 193.81.207.101 and your 
machine the same?

If yes: Do you have multiple interfaces in that machine? 

Can you post your smb.conf (comments stripped, please)?

What does "hostname" tell you?

What does "nmblookup -S LINUX01" tell you?

What does "nmblookup -S -U 193.81.207.101 LINUX01" tell you?
What does "nmblookup -S -U 193.81.207.101 '*'" tell you?

If you have other interfaces: please try with their IP addresses also.

Regards,
        Robert
