Yup. All I can say is that I've found this to work with reluctant 
Windoze clients. I assume they are just *incredibly* slow to discover 
the network.

Give them a week or two switched on, plugged into the network, doing 
nothing, and they'd probably be fine on their own...

cc'ing to the list in case it helps anyone else.
