I have a network with one Windows 10 PC on it as well as my openSUSE box. Before the upgrade I could access the Win10 box, now only my PC shows on the network.
Modifying smb.conf as suggested in “Configure Samba for a Workgroup in the local LAN” makes no difference, probably because the smb service is not running. nmb is running.

Research comes up with a bug involving winbind running when smb tries to start, but that is supposedly fixed, and winbind is not running.
Advice, please.
got smb running, but according to the YaST Samba Server function Samba is “partly active”, and localhost:901 will not connect. The previous thread was actually me with the same problem, and the solution was the same and worked that time. Maybe a reboot will help.
Yes that is SWAT (Samba Web Administration Tool). Never used it, and in any case it has been deprecated/removed for a long time now (due to security issues).
I now have more problems, Kate won’t work, and my Dolphin instances did not restore.
I’m not clear on what is not working with respect to Kate or Dolphin. Are you saying that you can’t view the windows shares from Dolphin? Did you have Dolphin places shortcuts (and it is these that are not working)?
Kate and Dolphin are separate issues. When I booted up today the two Dolphin instances I keep going, each with multiple tabs, did not restore. The Kate instance I keep didn’t come up either, files would not open with Kate, but would with Kwrite, the menu Kate didn’t work, but Kate does from the command line. At one point I got “KDEInit could not launch ‘/usr/bin/kate’”. As I rely heavily on maintaining Kate and Dolphin instances from session to session these will have to take priority.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to describe here? Do you mean the Windows machine doesn’t see (or can’t access) openSUSE shares or the other way around (assuming both are advertising shares)?
The Win10 machine is not visible from Linux on the network. Only my Linux box is there. Before the upgrade the Win10 box was visible and shares were accessible from Linux. The firewall is inactive, and was previously.
Initially the smb service would not start. Changing smb.conf security to USER allowed it to start. Now I can see my own box on the network, but that is all. When upgrading TO 15.0 I had the same problem, but the “security = USER” fix solved it. Not this time.
I am wondering if two upgrades have garbled something, and a re-install of samba might fix it.
As the firewall had been inactive before the upgrade, and I gather is supposed to be inactive by default, I was inclined to trust YaST. But I did eventually begin to wonder.
