Author Help with SAMBA

I just installed Redhat and am really enjoying it. I am on my home
network with 2 other machines..WinXP. I have finally gottent samba to
allow me to recognize the workgroup that I setup on my samba server on
my Windows XP system but when I click the workgroup I get an error. When
I look for the machine it does not see it. I know I am missing something
simple but have struggled all weekend just to get the workgroup to show
up. The documentaion that I got at my bookstore is sadly lacking. What
must I do to have the machine show up in the workgroup and share my
directories?
I'll appreciate any assistance as I am a Linux "newbie".
