OK. For NetBEUI, *not* TCPBEUI, how does one fix that?

If Lewis is correct, this won't matter since I'm not using NetBIOS over
TCP/IP, just plain old NetBIOS. Nonetheless, both machines ping each other
and each shows up on the other via "net view \\servername" with a full list of
resources (shares).
If I put a bunch of "net use" statements in a startup.cmd, will I still get
full WPS functionality for the resulting connections/shares?
