Hi!

First of all, i want to say thank you to all the people who helped me out the 
other day with the Mac question.
In fact, Netatalk needed to be properly configured.

Now i'm having another Mac problem :( and i've not been able to solve it.

Well, it seems that although Macs are registering and functioning properly in 
the domain, they don't appear as such to the rest of the computares in that 
domain.

This wouldn't be a problem if i wouldn't want to use that tiny Winpopup 
program that comes with Windows. 
So, Macs can send instant messages to PCs (using a Winpopup compatible 
software named Macpopup, but this doesn't happen the other way around).


I'm running Samba 2.0.7 with Netatalk


In atalkd.conf i only have this line:
eth0 -phase 2 -net 15 -addr 15.224 -zone "DTE_ZONE"

I don't have my domain name (DDTE) in any of netatalk config files.

My smb.conf and is as follows:
