[Samba] Cant access shares with netbios name

[Warren Beldad]

check for correct name resolution, can you ping the servername? try
modifying your hosts file.
are your server is on the same subnet? check with nbstat if your samba
server is registered with WINS.
check also the time difference between your samba and kerberos server.
