[Samba] re. Initial Samba Setup

On a recommendation from this list I checked the junklog file, the
output from which I attached below. It looks as if it does not even see
the linux machine as it indicates not seeing "explorer" which is the
local netbios name. The Win XP machine does not even show in the log.

Here is the last entry for nmbd.log:
 *****
[2003/11/21 06:24:58, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:terminate(54)
  Got SIGTERM: going down...
[2003/11/21 17:36:19, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(665)

nmbd/nmbd_become_lmb.c:become_local_master_stage2(396)
  *****
  
  Samba name server EXPLORER is now a local master browser for workgroup
WORKGROUP on subnet 192.168.0.20
  
  *****

Here is my very basic smb.conf:

[global]
	workgroup = Workgroup
	netbios name = explorer
[share 1]
	path=/root

lmhosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost


The junklog makes reference to a file /var/cache/samba/unexpected.tdb.
There are several .tdb files in that directory but not that one.
