Uh, it should show up in the Network Neighborhood. If not, you can try 
browsing to the IP address of the Samba server using Windows Explorer 
(or Start-Run) by typing \"\<IP address of Samba server>\" in the URL bar.

Depending on how you have things configured, it may ask you for a username and 
password.

HTH,
