SMB uses the smb.conf files to establish connections even when you are
browsing. You need to make sure that encrypted passwords =yes for it to
comunicate (unless you have hacked the registry on 2k to have
unencrypted password) another thing you can do is use the
password=server part and enter your winblows box as the user and
password server.
SMB and NMB need to be running on the linux box and the SMB ports need
to be open in the firewall rules (just makeing sure) also if it
located through a router you need to have the gateway ip for that SMB
network (SMB is non-routing)
