Samba + WinMe


From Linux to WinME works fine, can mount my dad's shared folder etc. The problem is only from winme i cannot see Samba in network neighborhood. When I press Add network place and type in \\STEVY and press next i can see the shared folder on Samba. When i click on Win-D and finish, i get an error " The network place could not be added because of an extended error. " After this i can double klick on " entire network " and see my samba server. Double klick on it and i see the home dir, but when i klick on win_d it comes with another error : Windows cannot find the computer or sharename

Here is my smb.conf :

# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = THUIS
netbios name = STEVY
server string = Samba Server
security = SHARE
encrypt passwords = Yes
update encrypted = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*success
fully*
unix password sync = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log

domain master = False
dns proxy = No

[printers]

usually problems like that are due to file permissions
