samba - Feb 2003 - Unable to see linux files on windows using Samba

Hi,

I installed Samba on the only linux server that
we have on our network.

On the Linux server, I was able to mount various shared
directories from various windows machines ( we use windows 2000 )
So, seeing windows files on linux is not a problem.

We also wanted to go the other way( seeing linux files on windows )
I searched on google but to no avail. I set the lmhosts file and
still nothing works.

On the windows network list, my linux server shows up as
"linuxserver.vnetwo" where "linuxserver" is the name of the
server
and "vnetwork" is the name of the network.

Now, the windows machine on which I would like to see my linux files
is not the primary domain controller. Nor do I want to make my
linux box the primary domain controller.

Please let me know what steps I need to take?

TIA,
Prem
