Hi list.
 
I don't know if this made it through the first time, as I've gotten no responses, so I'll try it again.
 
Anyway, I'm new to this list, so please bear with me.  I've got samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 9 (SPARC).  I've run all the tests.  testparm runs fine.  Other tests:
 
# nmblookup -B stage __SAMBA__
querying __SAMBA__ on 192.168.18.25
192.168.18.25 __SAMBA__<00>
#
# nmblookup -B 192.168.1.9 '*'
querying * on 192.168.1.9
192.168.1.9 *<00>
#
#
nmblookup -d 2 '*'
added interface ip=192.168.18.25 bcast=192.168.23.255 nmask=255.255.248.0
querying * on 192.168.23.255
Got a positive name query response from 192.168.18.25 ( 192.168.18.25 )
Got a positive name query response from 192.168.18.5 ( 192.168.18.5 )
192.168.18.25 *<00>
192.168.18.5 *<00>
#
nmblookup -d 2 '*'
added interface ip=192.168.18.25 bcast=192.168.23.255 nmask=255.255.248.0
querying * on 192.168.23.255
Got a positive name query response from 192.168.18.25 ( 192.168.18.25 )
Got a positive name query response from 192.168.18.5 ( 192.168.18.5 )

I got this far, and everything's cool.  Now I run net view from the DOS prompt. The server name doens't show up at all.  It also doesn't show up when browsing the shares in Windows Explorer.  So where do I go from here?  I'm confused.  Thanks.
