In trying to sort out the Samba server issues, I was using a Ubuntu desktop to try and figure out what was happening on the network. Things were being complicated by what I later discovered to be a bug in Ubuntu's Gnome version. The Nautilus browser does not know what to do with "smb:///" and as a result makes it look as if there is no browser on the network when you click on "Windows Network"
The URL "smb://workgroup/" works perfectly...
On the BOINC front, I have joined AQUA@Home as I am interested in the multi-threading idea in BOINC to use multiple processor cores for a single work-unit. An added bonus is their CUDA support for Linux. Just my luck, they are now out of work!
