Thank you Dan for your reply.  I do have correct interface setting as follow,

[global]
         interfaces = 192.168.1.0/24

I can mount file server from Window box and I can see my server with right 
click
on Network Neighborhood and "Find Computer".  After finding my server, double
click on the name of server opens explorer.  When I see the path, it's under
Network Neighborhood-->The name of my workgroup-->Samba server.  When I tried
go up to my workgroup, it gives me error saying it can't find it.  Very 
strange.

Any idea?

Thank you.

Joe Park
