This was one of the two typos I found yesterday (in my script-guide,
not in the actual config file).

Anyway, after copying your smb.conf (the biggest change is dropping
the netbios name completely) flushing all caches and restarting the
daemons, things seem to work again on the Unix side.

Thanks a lot - I'll try once more to join the Windows workstations
now, hopefully with more success this time.

Bye,

Stefan
