There is a chance that the linux machine, which
only supports TCP/IP and the Windows machines,
which default to running IP, NetBlooie and Novell,
have been unable to synch due to the lack of
a common protocol. Check if the domain/workgroup
master browser has TCP/IP installed, and remove any
unused protocols (they cause "intermittent and
hard to diagnose errors").
