Viewing shares using ip isn't the focus. Sorry I wasn't clear.  Of 
course you can always type the ip of the machine to access shares.  What 
we are actually looking for here is people that can "browse" the network 
just like you would "browse" in windows. 

The problem is that when we do a lookup for Windows XP names on the 
network using nmblookup (part of samba), XP machines don't show up.  IP 
is direct addressing the shares, and will always work.

Also, We don't need the shares section. We need the Global section of 
smb.conf's

Solutions have been found to get around the issue, I am still 
researching better methods.

Thanks :)
