Shawn, I have the same issue here.  I can see my Server 2003 and 2008
machines as well as the one XP that I have Wildcat! running on.  However,
like you, I cannot see my Win8 and Win8.1 test machines.  Haven't tried
with the Win10 VM yet.  I am thinking M$ might have screwed around with the
code that handles CIFS/SAMBA file sharing yet once again, but don't quote
me on that.
