samba - Jan 1999 - No Network Neighborhood Appearance

Hi,

	This is my first SAMBA 2.0.0.0 install under AIX 4.3.1.  I can find the
server in Win95 via menus START:Find:Computer.  If I double click the
Network Neighborhood icon the SAMBA AIX server is not showing.  Should it
work this way?

Thanks,
Allen

Do you have a WINS server on that subnet?  Are you registering with a WINS
server?  Are you acting as a Browse Master?

If you're the only system on that subnet that's broadcasting NetBeui
traffic
then you probably need to act as a local browse master.  If you're not the
only one on that subnet, then you may need to advertise yourself to
a WINS server.
