	Do this: Use smbclient to see if your Linux PPTP server can see
the "invisible" NT shares.  If the Linux box can't see it (for whatever
reason), then all VPN client machines won't see it either.


Hmm. I did that once. the command is smbclient -L <something>. It shows the 
NT machines.
I can also mount and logon to NT domain from smb client on linux (same as 
poptop).

	Is there any way to use smbclient to "browse" a network--that is,
to look at the browse list (instead of looking at a particular host)?


Yeah. the smbclient -L <domain-controller> will show all the shares stored 
in the table of <domain-controller>

	Also, on my Win95 system at work there is an option that
"winipcfg" shows that says "NetBIOS Resolution Uses DNS".  What is that
all about?

Never used it
