We just had this here. The outcome was:

Samba _never_ answers with that (normally it is "Called name not 
present"). So something else is answering.

Just to make sure your name resolution works properly: Run smbclient 
with "-d 4" and check if it goes to the correct IP address. If it does 
so, you have something else answering.

Stop smbd, try again. If you still get _any_ answer, you might have Lan 
Manager installed. This won't work together with Samba on the same 
machine.
