[Samba] bind or samba configuration preventing browsing network

[Erik Anderson]

I have a networking problem where I am not certain if the problem is 
samba or bind. I am still pretty much a nb at linux. The machine in 
question is running openSuSE 10.2 and is named rd1. I had samba working 
fine before I started to make it a WINS server and DNS host.

I have a small LAN with no real administration functionality. The 
network is used for simple file sharing and dial-up internet 
connectivity. The SuSE box is the only linux box on the network, and a 
fairly new addition. I am attempting to setup rd1 to handle DNS and WINS 
and participate in the network filesharing activities. The windows boxes 
are running XP. Internet access is on a XP computer located at 
192.168.0.1 and is hence setup as the gateway. rd1 is located at 
192.168.0.4 and I decided to use the m$ domain of mshome.net, but create 
a workgroup called radio

Using the following configuration, the XP boxes can see all the machines 
on the network. At times, the XP boxes can access rd1 (not not 
currently, as I must have broken something). rd1 cannot browse the 
“Windows Network” but, a cifs automount permits access to points mounted 
on 192.168.0.1

An nslookup performed on rd1 always works right (nslookup rd1 or 
nslookup rd1.mshome.net). An nslookup using full hostnames (e.g. 
nslookup rd1.mshome.net) works, but dropping the domain does not (e.g. 
nslookup rd1) on the XP box.
I have spent a bunch of time trying to resolve this. I am stuck. Where 
have I gone wrong? Thank you for your help...
