Check the work groups that the two machines are in.

I can't remember how you do it on windows, my computer > system

Ok, now this, is totally bazaar.

My Ubuntu box won't see my shares on the windows laptop, yet, when I set up
/music in my homedir, as a share, then went through my network places,
entire network, Microsoft Windows Network, I do then see desktop samba
