netbios name can`t be found in network


Hy!

I ` am using Samba to share a directory to the net.

When i trie to mount the directory from an other pc using the ip everything works fine.

But i would like to use the Netbios name and that does not work.

I hove 3 other samba maschines and they don`t show that problem, so the mistake must be found at the configuration of samba or not ?

Here is my config file.

[global]
workgroup = xxxxx
os level = 2
time server = Yes
unix extensions = Yes
encrypt passwords = Yes
map to guest = Bad User
printing = CUPS
printcap name = CUPS
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
wins support = No
veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
browseable = No
read only = No
create mask = 0640
directory mask = 0750
[xxx]
comment = xxx
valid users = root
browseable = Yes
read only = No

smbclient -L localhost -U%
added interface ip=xx.xx.xx bcast=xx.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0
Domain=[xxxxx] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.8a-SuSE]

Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Samba 2.2.8a-SuSE auf (localhost))
ADMIN$ Disk IPC Service (Samba 2.2.8a-SuSE auf (localhost))

Server Comment
--------- -------

Workgroup Master
--------- -------

so here no workgroup is shown !
What does that mean ?
