Samba Network Browsing


I'm trying to setup my Samba Server so that I can browse it with the other Windows machines on my network. I can't seem to get the Samba server to see the windows machines and vice versa. I've looked through the documentatio and can't seem to find what's missing from my smb.conf file, here's what it looks like...

;============================= Global Parameters===========================
Workgroup = HOME
NetBIOS Name = REDHAT
Server String = Samba Server %v
Encrypt Passwords = Yes
Password Level = 8
Username Level = 8
Log File = /var/log/samba/%m.log
Max Log Size = 0
Socket Options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
OS Level = 33
Preferred Master = True
Domain Master = False
DNS Proxy = No
Browseable = Yes


If someone could help me out with this, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Aaron

Here's my smb.conf:

[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = MYBOX
server string = Linux Server
interfaces=eth0
encrypt passwords = yes
os level = 99
preferred master = yes
domain master = no
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 50
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
hosts allow = 192.168.0.
[temp]
comment = TMP Directory
path = /tmp
read only = no
browseable = yes
create mask = 0666
directory mask = 0777


Change those Trues and False to Yes and No. And rasie the os level. Make Linux the master!
