Right. IE adds http: to a raw address

That got somewhere. When I entered 192.168.1.20 into the My Computer
address bar, it got a failure to connect. 192.168.1.100 (the laptop
address) did show it's file system.

It looks like it's getting closer, but I can't for the life of me see
what's wrong. The hosts parameters in smb.conf read
	hosts allow =127. 192.168.

Which is a direct paraphrase from the man smb.conf page.
