I kind of knew this but I'm not sure what format is accepted for
interfaces, or what I should really put here for that matter. I'm
suffering from Newbie-itus. :-)

Ping and tracepath reach the destination samba machine. traceroute6
says that the host is unknown, but this is the same as the other
192.168.1.6 machine that accepts the samba share.

I don't think the samba machine is keeping a log of my attempted
connection as there is no similar log file for this machine (other log
files exist for the 192.168.1.6 machine - log.192.168.1.6). Also,
there doesn't seem to be any pertinent log files on the client machine
that I can find, so this is of little help.
