From the Network Neighborhood (File Manager in older releases), try to browse the server. Your Samba server should appear in the browse list of your local workgroup. You should be able to double click on the name of the server and get a list of shares, as illustrated in
Figure 9.5. 
-
If you get an "Invalid password" error with NT 4.0, NT 3.5 with Patch 3, Windows 95 with Patch 3, Windows 98 or any of these with Internet Explorer 4.0, it's most likely the encryption problem again. All of these clients default to using Microsoft encryption for passwords (see Chapter 6). -
If you receive an "Unable to browse the network" error, one of the following has ocurred:
-
You have looked too soon, before the broadcasts and updates have completed; try waiting 30 seconds before re-attempting. -
There is a network problem you've not yet diagnosed. -
There is no browse master. Add the configuration option
local
master
=
yes to your
smb.conf file. -
No shares are marked
browsable in the
smb.conf file. -
If you receive the message "\\server is not accessible," then:
-
You have the encrypted password problem -
The machine really isn't accessible -
The machine doesn't support browsing
