Is there some special mumbo-jumbo I need to do in order to get NT 4.0 and 
Samba to work properly?  The Samba box shows up in my browse list under the 
correct workgroup, but no shares are listed and any attempt to connect to 
anything results in the message "The network path was not found."

If I log into the Samba box and run the smbclient, I can log into the shares 
and even log into the NT shares.

The Samba box is a Dell running BSDI BSD/OS 2.1.

I've got some data files that get updated on a daily basis on the Unix box and 
I need to pull them off and stick them into my MS SQL 6.5 server.  I figured 
this was a good a method as anything else (other suggestions)?
