[Samba] Samba 3.0.1 windows browsing

[James Bowes]

Hi again all.
 
I still haven't resolved this issue of browsing the LAN. Here are a few
details:

*	The windows stations can see each other when the Samba server is
off-line
*	The windows station can't see each or anything else on the
network when Samba is brought on-line
*	Wins support is enabled
*	each windows station has proper Wins entries with Wins enabled
*	the server and stations have been rebooted several times -
doesn't change anything
*	/etc/hosts has proper entries
*	each windows station has a static IP (small network, easy to
manage)
*	nmblookup correctly identifies the Master Browser as the Samba
server
*	smbclient properly lists shares on the Samba server and each
windows station

Here is a look at the nmblookup - general query applied
 
nmblookup -L pgbc
added interface ip=192.168.0.9 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0

Any ideas or insight's would be helpful and very appreciated.
