Your WINS or DNS server probably isn't setup or setup correctly. If Samba<br>
is acting as your PDC, then you would probably want that to act as your
DNS<br>
server? I'm not too sure on that as I haven't reached that level yet.<br>
However, I will be setting up a PDC next week for a few schools. Hopefully<br>
I'll learn more by then or perhaps my head will explode. :-)<br>
<br>
Good luck.<br>

I can't see the box in the Network Neighborhood. Is there something I'm<br>
missing? I'll try mapping to the IP address.<br>
Thanks<br>
