samba - Dec 2001 - Win2K problem

Hello,

We have been having intermittent connection problems with our samba server. 
We are using Windows scripting host to map the drive automatically. Below 
is a snip of the beginning of a successful logon attempt.

[2001/12/03 15:51:08, 3] smbd/oplock.c:init_oplocks(1200)
   open_oplock_ipc: opening loopback UDP socket.
[2001/12/03 15:51:08, 3] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(837)
   bind succeeded on port 0
[2001/12/03 15:51:08, 3] smbd/oplock_linux.c:linux_init_kernel_oplocks(293)
   Linux kernel oplocks enabled
[2001/12/03 15:51:08, 3] smbd/oplock.c:init_oplocks(1230)
   open_oplock ipc: pid = 4572, global_oplock_port = 32802
[2001/12/03 15:51:08, 3] smbd/process.c:process_smb(837)
   Transaction 0 of length 72

When we get a failure this is what the log begins with:

[2001/12/05 13:15:35, 3] smbd/process.c:process_smb(837)
   Transaction 11 of length 39
[2001/12/05 13:15:35, 3] smbd/process.c:switch_message(650)
   switch message SMBtdis (pid 10331)
[2001/12/05 13:15:35, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(316)
   setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0
[2001/12/05 13:15:35, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(316)
   setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0

We are passing off to our PDC for authentication, the problem appears to be 
that no socket is bound, is there a solution?

I am trying to set up a very simple Samba setup here (v 2.2.3a), and 
am having an odd problem. I am just setting everything up as a 
workgroup (no domain controller). All PCs are set to the same 
workgroup. The problem I am having is:

1. All Win 98 and Win ME see the Samba server and work great

2. Most Win2K (and our one NT4) machines see the Samba server 
and work great

3. Two machines (one of which is my laptop) do not see the server.

By 'see the server' I mean through Network Neighborhood/Places and 
being able to map a drive to the share.

I can't figure out what is different about those two machines. Does 
anyone have any suggestions???

Thanks -
