You write that uses samba 2.2.3 that is very old and i mean that you use all
system old, then i write to update is best way. When you stay use old samba
with old bugs help to yuo is trouble.
You have right conf of nmbd is in smb.conf file but must be ok for more
parameters of browsing.
You not send conf and more infos then you must help somebody...
