NT Problems with Samba

Okay - all I'm trying to do here is smbclient from my Slackware Linux box
(SNUFFY) to my Windows NT 4.0 SP3 Server (BURT).  Burt is a BDC and is
participating in WINS via my internal WINS Server.  The Scope ID for the
WINS Server is HARVESTWEB - but I'm not sure how to set that in SAMBA. My
password server (I assume) should be my PDC with is GROVER (146.115.109.8)

Eventually, I want to be able to mount shared directories from BURT on
SNUFFY with smbfs - but I wanna get this to work first...  A typescript of
what happens is listed below along with my smb.conf file...

If anyone has any ideas (up to and including smacking me upside the head for
doing something stoopid) please let me know.  Many many many thanks in
advance.

# smbclient \\\\burt\\c

Added interface ip=146.115.109.10 bcast=146.115.109.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Session request failed (131,130) with myname=SNUFFY destname=BURT
Called name not present
Try to connect to another name (instead of BURT)
You may find the -I option useful for this
# smbclient \\\\burt\\c -I 146.115.109.1
