Thank you for replying.
Do you know exactly what the problem is (why Samba servers don't appear on
> Windows computers instantly) ? Can you give us more details ?

Windows Vista and later uses what they call WSD (Web Service for Device, or
such naming) or UPnP-based SSDP to
search for available network
resources before trying NetBIOS. I have
read someone wrote Samba servers appeared properly in the Explorer window
if a Windows computer was the browse master, but I am not sure if it is
true.
