[Samba] smbclient not displaying shares

I have just recently installed Samba. I have two WinXP Pro machines 
networked to a FreeBSD 5.4 computer. The Printer is connected to one of 
the WinXP machines currently.

This is the output of the 'smbclient' command.

smbclient -U user-name -L winxp
Password:
Domain=[winxp] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]

         Sharename       Type      Comment
         ---------       ----      -------
Error returning browse list: NT_STATUS_OK
Domain=[winxp] OS=[Windows 5.1] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]

         Server               Comment
         ---------            -------

         Workgroup            Master
         ---------            -------

As you can see, nothing is listed.

This is my smb.conf file. It is rather simple.

# Samba config file created using SWAT

[config-l]

 	username = @wheel, @user, root
 	valid users = @wheel, @user, root
 	admin users = @wheel, @user, root
 	write list = @wheel, @user, root
 	read only = No

All of the share do show up in the Windows Network. What am I doing wrong 
here.

Ciao
