[Samba] From Linux machine cannot see XP machines share list anymore

[Mr486]

Update: I got the following to work but when I tried smbmount
//systen/99 /mnt -I 10.0.0.11 I got the following, any pointers as to
why I cannot mount the drive but can access it with smbclient
appreciated:
 
/usr/bin/smbmount //systen/99 /mnt -I 10.0.0.11
Password:
mount error: No such device
Please look at smbmount's manual page for possible reasons

This is successful:
