I was able to view all the Windows servers and computers through finder when Tiger was on my Mac but since upgrading to Leopard, I have to use the "connect to server" method to gain any access. When I click on the "network" button in finder, I can see the other Macs on the domain but none of the Windows machines. I thought maybe it was my smb.conf file that maybe needed something changed but I am not sure what to add or change.

I was hoping someone here would be pretty good with these conf files and maybe be able to help me out. I have tried so many things and so many websites and still have yet to find a solution. Here is my smb.conf file:

; ============================================================================
;
; For the format of this file and comprehensive descriptions of all the
; configuration option, please refer to the man page for smb.conf(5).
;
; The following configuration should suit most systems for basic usage and
; initial testing. It gives all clients access to their home directories and
; allows access to all printers specified in /etc/printcap.

; BEGIN required configuration

; Parameters inside the required configuration block should not be altered.
; They may be changed at any time by upgrades or other automated processes.
;
; Site-specific customizations will only be preserved if they are done
; outside this block. If you choose to make customizations, it is your
; own responsibility to verify that they work correctly with the supported
; configuration tools.

Any help is GREATLY appreciated!
