samba: can connect to localhost only.

[frozenJim]

Hi, new to Samba. I have set up my samba server on Linux. No problem accessing the windows machines but nobody can see my Samba server. Not even the Samba server unless I connect to localhost. (PC name is thorn, netbios name is thorn in smb.conf) For starters, I am working with the //thorn/tmp share so don't worry too much about other misconfigured shares ;-)

This works:

# smbclient //localhost/tmp -U=guest
Password: 
Domain=[THORN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.14a]
smb: \> exit

This fails:

# smbclient //thorn/tmp -U=guest
Password: 
tree connect failed: Call returned zero bytes (EOF)

My samba server is not visible to any other computers on the windows workgroup and there is no way to get connected.

What have I done wrong?
