John, everyone,
Whatever needs to be running on the Solaris box is running properly.
Windows 2000 workstation has no problem accessing or browsing the
Solaris box. It is only XP that is producing the error.
All of your suggestions are excellent, PLEASE keep them coming!
Microsoft tech support is floundering around on this one, I'm hoping
that you knowledgeable Samba experts will be able to save my life here.
Bob

Also make sure that nmbd is running on the linux box.
