>Is there a wins server on your system?
No
>Is there a DNS server on your system?
Yes! it point all machine by names like static52.ourdomaine.com

No.

>I just don't know how to trouble shoot a connection problem from a windows

I'll try for sure! 

>Can the windows machines find the other linux boxes on your network?

Yes ! I see all my linux box in the Network Neigorhood, BUT
when I click on one, I got this message from the Windoze Box :

'Share name could not be found, make sure you typed it correctly....'


>How many windows machines are on your system that need to access your
>server? 

30-40 WinShit machines;) 

>I would try the lmhost fix. 
I'll try on 2-3 machines just for fun, but I can't imagine
me running from box to box to change this little file on
40 machines.... eheh :) (I'm not the admin so... )

>If that works, that might be the obvious and quick solution.
