A quick Google would also show that there isn't much more to know than
what is in the man page. Smbtree prints a list of available servers
and devices in your domain in the same way as Network Neighborhood
does in Windows, but it does it on the command line, through Terminal
in Ubuntu. If you have a use for that, then use it. If you don't, and
unless you have machines that have SMB shares that don't have some
kind of GUI, then you probably don't.
In my experience, if you don't get an answer to a question on a
mailing list or forum it's because no-one reading has an answer. This
is just a fact of life. However, if you google 'samba error 255
ubuntu' you will find a lot of data relating to the problem that
causes it. It appears to relate to permissions on
/var/lib/samba/usershares.

But in response to this, the op was getting an answer, through the
group, which then suddenly stopped, which indicatges it went off board.
Its kind of frustratng seeing the answer unfold, for it to stop
unfolding. Its also kind of frustrating having asked the same questions,
to have gotten nowhere, previously.
I have looked, via google, tried a few things, but most of which are
over my head, which is why I attempted to ask here.
You mention permissions relating to /var/lib/samba/usershares I have no
idea what that means, could you explain a little bit more.
