Jesse,

You should read the preceding thread (SAMBA/DNS question), as I had the 
same problem.

I solved my problem using testparm.  If you are using the default 
smb.conf location, just run

   testparm -s

My problem involved some WINS settings which I hadn't realized were 
contradictory.

Are you using swat?  If so, check the status page to see if nmbd is 
running.  No running nmbd (Names Master Browser Daemon) allows the linux 
machine to browse the windows machines, but without it the windows 
machines can't browse the linux machine.  If nmbd is not running, try 
starting it from that page.

If it refuses to start (as mine did) testparm may diagnose the reason 
(as it did for me).
