IP worked, so smbmount seems to be o.k., but why can't I resolver the
names, and browse the network??

Try using the IP like:
mount -t smbfs -o username=guest //192.168.1.1/whatever /mnt/blah

SMB connection failed
That's what I get. But that doesn't help me any further because even
before I knew that I got no connection. But why? i don't know which
settings could be wrong.

I haven't tried smbclient from the commandline because I don't know
how to use it to seek for online machines.
assuming you want to get access to a windows share try this from the
command line:
mount -t smbfs -o username=YOURNAME;password=YOURPASSWORD
//COMPUTERNAME/SHARE /MOUNTPOINT
where YOURNAME and YOURPASSWORD are the username and password of the
windows computer. You should either get access to the share or an
error message, that tells you where your problem is...
