I am assuming that  \\192.168.1.6   in Windows Explorer (The file manager) does not bring up the server.  What is the error?

 

I also assume that you have tried all of the computers on your network and they all behave the same. 

 

When you look at the Network icon (or type Network into the address bar on Windows Explorer), what do you see?

 

Another thing to try.  From the command line on your server, type    nmblookup -S WORKGROUP  where WORKGROUP is the name of your workgroup.  You should get a complete list of all the computers that are using SMB in that workgroup.    If you see a line with  .._MSBROWSER_.  That is the master browser for that workgroup.
