[Samba] Can see Linux box, but no shares from windows

[samba at universalgrid.nl]

I use webmin. It's pretty good.

I got a hunch that this problem has something to do with windows not being 
able to resolve the name from the linux box, since everything works fine 
under linux.
I wonder if anyone knows anything about that.
