All, I do not think this is a configuration issue as I have never had this problem under 2.2.x and the configuration file has not been changed. Every 15 mins (exactly) I get the following error appearing in syslog: Oct 20 10:10:31 hantu nmbd[3379]: [2002/10/20 10:10:31, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:find_domain_master_name_query_fail(357) Oct 20 10:10:31 hantu nmbd[3379]: find_domain_master_name_query_fail: Oct 20 10:10:31 hantu nmbd[3379]: Unable to find the Domain Master Browser name WORKGROUP<1b> for the workgroup WORKGROUP. Oct 20 10:10:31 hantu nmbd[3379]: Unable to sync browse lists in this workgroup. The thing which I cannot understand is why is it looking for the Master Browser called WORKGROUP as there are no machines in the workgroup WORKGROUP called WORKGROUP. Could anyone shed any light onto this or is this a bug? $ smbclient -N -Lhantu added interface ip=192.168.0.2 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Got a positive name query response from 127.0.0.1 ( 192.168.0.2 ) Doing spnego session setup (blob length=58) Anonymous login successful Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Debian GNU/Linux 3.0) ADMIN$ IPC IPC Service (Debian GNU/Linux 3.0) Server Comment --------- ------- DUMP Windows 98 HANTU Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 BOB Windows XP Professional Workgroup Master --------- ------- WORKGROUP HANTU $ cat /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP netbios name = HANTU server string = Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 log file = /var/log/samba/all.log debug level = 2 max log size = 0 security = user encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 oplock break wait time = 100 os level = 64 local master = yes domain master = yes preferred master = yes wins support = yes dns proxy = no [homes] comment = Home Directories directory mask = 0700 create mask = 0600 browseable = no writable = yes public = no Kind Regards, Chris -- Chris Mason <chris@k-rad.org> GnuPG 1024D/8288CEE6 37D2 B5BE 612F 568B 9A63 F193 93B4 E5B8 8288 CEE6
