I stated why I did it. I'm glad to do it your way. Here's the current:

workgroup = MDKGROUP

<--------------------[snip]---------------->

*******************************
and the original Fedora

        workgroup = workgroup

<--------------------[snip]---------------->

It would not surprise me that the whole problem is something I've completely missed. In my now currently, seemingly, working setup, I just discovered that even though the smbk4 utility can identify all the machines, their ip addresses, and their available shares (still un-mountable), on the lan, I still can't ping one of those machines!

One thing that is going to affect the machines showing up is the different workgroup name. Normally, you will only see machines in your own workgroup. There may be other problems, but that is one that jumped out at me.

Also, with the newer versions of Samba, if the host name does not resolve, you need to include the IP address in the mount command.
