[Samba] win ME/Samba connection

[Jim Wharton]

Are you saying that your samba server doesn't show up in "My Network
Places"? Can other machines connect? Can you ping the server from WinME? Can
you net view from a command (MSDOS) window?

Can you send me a dump of /etc/samba/smb.conf. (samba.conf isn't the right
name)
