[Samba] Still Having Problems

I am still having trouble with my Windoze2K machine resolving the NetBIOS 
name of my Samba server. It appears in the Network Neighborhood window but 
clicking on it gives the "Server not accessible, network path not found"

On the server, nmblookup returns names of other machines, but not the 
server itself unless I use "nmblookup -B 192.0.0.199 lserver." Otherwise it 
says lookup failed on 192.0.0.255

I would appreciate any ideas. I am new to this and probably overlooked 
something.
