Fedora Users — Re: samba client in big workgroup

Workgroup is set probably. But I'll check the hostname, because in nmbd.log.1 (the only log with any real output in it) it shouldn't be talking about localhost, should it? Now that's /var/log/samba/nmbd.log.1:

here at school I'm located inside a private subnet which offers smb networking capabilities. everytime I try to access them with konqi or nautilus it says "no master browser found" which simply is not possible, and I have already browsed the network succesfully with other linux distris. smbclient is installed.

I suspect different SMB machines (Samba and Windows[tm]) are fighting
against each other to become master browser. So check your
/var/log/samba/ logs and configuration of the Samba hosts.
