#1 RTFM samba-2.0.2/source/web/diagnose.c !!!
Cay you ping the Linux box from Win95 using both the IP address and
the machine name? If not check win95 hosts & lmhosts. Check Linux
/etc/hosts.

I connect with
smbclient '\\win\WINC' -N
win is defined in W95 lmhosts, hosts and linux hosts as
192.168.1.2 win.home win
192.168.1.1 mtntop.home mtntop

This is all explained in the docs! To have your Linux box be the
master put this in [ global ]
os level = 33
After reading the doc's let us know what you had to do to get it up,
OK.
