I'm wondering if the virus scanner I put on the PC could be the problem -- I've disabled it (as much as I can) but I'm suspicious.
This looks bad...

Aha - smbclient is unable to find a machine identifying itself with a windows name of BERTHA. This virus scanner you mention may very well be the culprit - a number of them also include some level of firewall functionality which may be interfering. Can you browse 192.168.1.11 from any other machines on your network? -- Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu, fs at suave.net | $ x 16 Full-time WPI Network Tech, Part time Linux/Perl guy | I have a great diet.
