samba - Nov 2002 - Not visable server

Hi list

I have a problem.
Running Samba 2.2.1a on a Redhat Linux 7.2 kernel 2.4.18
Client is a Microsoft Windows2000pro

I can connect to all shares but I can not see my server in network
neighborhood.
I can see the the clients but not the server???
What have I missed? Some configuration I can test

Thanks
H?kan

Have you walked through  DIAGNOSIS.txt in the source docs?

If you installed samba from sources, in the docs/text directory, you will
find this useful troubleshooting document.
If not, you'll have to go to the samba web site and look around for it.

I have a find the solution my self and I think I have
an addition to the DIAGNOSIS.txt and the FAQ

The DIAGNOSIS.txt did not give me anything.
All test pass thru without half of  the last.
The problem was that the Linux Samba server had a different
network IP mask than the windows client.
The Linux Server had network address 192.168.7.2 with mask 255.255.0.0
broadcast 192.168.255.255
but the client had 192.168.7.3/255.255.240.0 broadcast 192.168.15.0
After setting them to same everthing worked.
Must they be the same??
If yes: Maybe samething to write in the DIAGNOSIS.txt file...

Problem with browsing is from microsoft method.. broadcast must be eq not
mask.
If broadcast is not eq must by routed or bridged.
