Your machine resolves pc-chiara as 195.210.87.131 so it's quite normal that samba cannot connect to it. You probably can't ping it either. This is not a samba bug, more an issue in configuration of your name resolution... You should be able to work around the issue by adding pc- chiara in your /etc/hosts file ?
