The problem can be on either the client or server machine.
Make sure Samba is listening on the right ports. RPC is on port 135. If you don't see Samba listening on port 135, then that's your problem.
Also make sure that, on your client Windows machine, the "TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper" service is running (in services.msc) and set to run automatically. If that was not running, then that's your problem.
