All, first off thanks for any advice on this issue. Last night, my fileserver crashed on me. When i came in this morning, here is what the syslog was filled up with:

May 20 21:54:26 fileserver1 nmbd[15324]: [2004/05/20 21:54:26, 0] nmbd/nmbd_packets.c:process_browse_packet(1063) 
May 20 21:54:26 fileserver1 nmbd[15324]:   process_browse_packet: Discarding datagram from IP 192.168.1.6. Source name FILESERVER1<00> is one of our names ! 
May 20 21:57:28 fileserver1 nmbd[15324]: [2004/05/20 21:57:28, 0] nmbd/nmbd_packets.c:process_browse_packet(1063) 
May 20 21:57:28 fileserver1 nmbd[15324]:   process_browse_packet: Discarding datagram from IP 192.168.1.6. Source name FILESERVER1<00> is one of our names ! 
May 20 22:00:28 fileserver1 nmbd[15324]: [2004/05/20 22:00:28, 0] nmbd/nmbd_packets.c:process_browse_packet(1063) 
May 20 22:00:28 fileserver1 nmbd[15324]:   process_browse_packet: Discarding datagram from IP 192.168.1.6. Source name FILESERVER1<00> is one of our names ! 

And here is the smb.conf file global section:

workgroup = WORKGROUP
        netbios name = FILESERVER1
        server string = Main file server
        security = SHARE
        encrypt passwords = true
        enhanced browsing = no
        log file = /var/log/smb.log
        #max log size = 50
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        os level = 128
        domain master = Yes
        remote browse sync = 192.168.12.10 192.168.62.10
        preferred master = Yes
        local master = Yes
        dns proxy = yes
        wins support = yes
        wins proxy = yes
        name resolve order = wins lmhosts hosts bcast
        interfaces = 192.168.1.255/255.255.255.0 192.168.12.255/255.255.255.0 192.168.13.255/255.255.255.0 192.168.62.255/255.255.255.0 192.168.1.6/255.255.255.0
        remote announce = 192.168.1.255/WORKGROUP 192.168.12.10/WORKGROUP 192.168.1.6/WORKGROUP 192.168.13.9/WORKGROUP 192.168.62.10/WORKGROUP
        debug level = 2

Would that error message be related to the fact that it is remote announcing to itself? Also, this server is acting as a wins server in a workgroup environment, no pdc's, 2 subnets. If anyone needs more info, please ask!! Thank you.
