Browsing is a pain even between windows machines on different LANs. It's clearly fixable, but if I were you, I wouldn't bother. The second problem could be attributed to eiter some firewall/routing issue or SMB configuration. To make sure it's not the first one, I would try to telnet from Win to Lin and see if it goes well. If it does, focus on smb.conf & permission/user mapping. There are 1001 things which can get wrong there and it's hard for me to give any specific advices without seeing it myself. If you want to look into it yourself, I would start right here . If you get really desperate, I could probably give you a hand and connect with SSH/Remote Desktop. Cannot promose it will be fast as the last time I dealt with all this crap was in my previous life, back in 90ies ;-)
