I am a newbe, I just managed to install alfresco under ubuntu

I was trying to configure CIFS in a Xubuntu 6.10.
Well, precisely is a windows xp running vmware.

When I started alfresco 2.0 with the CIFS support I get the following errors
in the /opt/Alfresco/alfresco.log.

ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] Failed to get local domain/workgr
oup name, using default of WORKGROUP

ERROR [org.alfresco.smb.protocol] (This may be due to firewall sett
ings or incorrect <broadcast> setting)
 ‍‍‍‍‍‍

The computer is called workdesk it appears in the prompt user@workdesk
but there is no any dns configured, and I am not using any WINS server.

This is my file file-servers.xml

Does anybody know what is happening?

I solved the problem doing the following actions.

First I decided to use the default ports because  I have not had a samba already
running. This is just a logic measure and does not solve the problem.

Then I changed the broadcast direction to the correct one.  With ifconfig it is possible to see the right value if you do not deployed the network.

And the most important thing is to modify the following line:

<host name="${localname}_A"/> ‍‍

to

<host name="${localname}_A" domain="MYDOMAIN"/>
‍‍‍

The problem now is that by the time being I obtain response when I try to access the resource but the password and the user are not responding.

Does anybody know the possible cause?
