FWIW, I tracked down the answer to this one. The problem was that we do not
use the default "WORKGROUP" for our domain name. To tell OS X client to look
at other domains in the Connect to Server panel, go to Utilities | Directory
Access, unlock, double-click the SMB entry, and type in the the Windows
domain name (in our case JSCHOOL). Now I can browse network shares again
(the weird thing is that this worked automatically prior to 10.2 - something
in the network stack must have changed).
