I'm using samba on Fedora Server Edition. But I can't figure out why any windows can not see it. It can connect (directly, using ip address). It basically works, but I can't see them on either linux (using nautilus) nor windows explorer.
Basics:
- OS: Fedora Server Edition 32
- hostname: bienenstock.local
- samba: 4.12.5-0.fc32.x64_64
- firewall is running (samba is allowed - I'm able to connect directly)
- SELinux is enforcing (reading/writing on shares works fine)

As you can see, both daemons are up and running (thou I do not understand why a "domain master name query" fails ... - might be relevant?).
Sadly looking up the internet only reveals problems related to samba, SELinux, etc. But this works, the only thing that does not is announcing it on windows explorer or nautilus. What am I missing?
Thank you in advance!
