Kevin's advice below is excellent.
Consider that password & user have nothing to do with
the INITIAL browsing. (They matter when you try to connect,
and usually when you try to get a "share list" after you select
a server.)
Can you ping? By name? By number?
Do you have more than one (internal) subnet? If so, do you have
WINS server(s)? All all internal machines configured to use that
WINS server if you have it or add one?
