Hello list.

This seems to be the only suse-list thats right 4 this question

If i'am browsing my network neighborhood i can see me workgroup
where my samba-server is the pdc 4 (W2K). On W9x nothing is to
see despite an error on clicking "whole network" -> "network cant
be browsed" (or so - me german).

If i search the server directly all wents fine and i can use the
shares -> so everything but browsing the workgroups works.
