Any idea on how to set-up XP Pro to accept smbmount?

The XP Pro machine is named, 'red_hat'.

Here's what happens when I try to list the shares on red_hat from my
debian machine, 'debian':

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ smbclient -L red_hat
added interface ip=192.168.0.3 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
error connecting to 192.168.0.2:139 (Connection refused)
Error connecting to 192.168.0.2 (Connection refused)
Connection to red_hat failed

When I do a nmap of red_hat, port 139 is indicated as closed, although I
currently can see my samba shares running on debian.

Thanks in advance,
Barry
