[Samba] SAMBA not broadcasting server info

	Up until a few days ago, I had SAMBA running just fine on several
different systems, but very recently on of the server has quit announcing
itself to the newtwork.  Smbd, nmbd, and winbindd are all running on the
server, and the machines on the network can all still reach the shares on
the system, but an attempt to browse for the server and its available shares
from a client PC does not produce a listing of the system.  The other
systems show up just fine.  I can't find any errors of any sort in the logs.
I have made a number of changes to the system recently, including an upgrade
to Debian Wheezy, but I cannot figure out where the issue might have arisen.
Where can I look for the issue?  I have not made any changes to the config
file, but here it is, anyway:

AID-Server:/var/log# cat /etc/samba/smb.conf
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from UNKNOWN (192.168.1.121)
# Date: 2013/07/27 09:43:41
