We have a local network with Samba 2.0.3 on SuSE-Linux and some
Windows 95 and Windows 98 clients. All works fine.
Now we have got a new Windows XP computer, and we found no way
to connect to the Samba server from that computer.
1. The network card works. I can ping the server, and it replies.
2. The Samba server as well as the Windows XP computer are shown
in the network neighbourhood.
3. If I double-click the symbol of the Samba server an error
message is shown saying "Auf \\CERES kann nicht zugegriffen
werden. Sie haben eventuell keine Berechtigung, diese Netz-
werkresource zu verwenden. ..." (in English: You cannot access
\\CERES. May be, you are not allowed to use this network
resource."
4. On Windows 95 and Windows 98 computers the dialog window, opened
by the "property" button for "client of Microsoft networks",
shows a checkbox "log on to Windows NT domain", which is checked
on these computers. Below that there is a edit field which shows
the name of the workgroup.
On Windows XP this window looks completely different, and it
doesn't seem to me very useful.
5. The main part of the /etc/smb.conf file is:
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
guest account = nobody
os level = 65
security = user
printing = bsd
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
oplocks = false
map to guest = Bad User
interfaces = 192.168.76.2/255.255.255.0 192.168.67.2/255.255.255.0
wins support = yes
logon script =%U.bat
domain logons = yes
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
password level = 2
[netlogon]
path = /usr/samba/netlogon
browseable = yes
writeable = no
guest ok = no
[homes]
comment = Heimatverzeichnis
browseable = no
read only = no
create mode = 0750
[printers]
comment = All Printers
browseable = no
printable = yes
public = no
read only = yes
create mode = 0700
directory = /tmp
(Some drive and printer definitions follow.)
6. The log file messages in /var/log/log.smb are:

Could anyone help me and say how to configure Windows XP?
