I've got a Samba 3 box running RHEL 3 that has been added to a Windows 2000
domain as a member server, however it cannot be browsed via the network (it
appears within the domain, but does not open the machine).
Its IP address is 10.30.4.1/255.255.252.0, nbtstat.exe on one of the windows
boxes returns as below
P:\>nbtstat -A 10.30.4.1
Local Area Connection 3:
Node IpAddress: [10.30.5.1] Scope Id: []
Host not found.
DNS is used for name resolution and Ping can resolve a name to an IP
address. Smbclient can connect to another host however nmblookup cannot.
Smbclient when directed at itself does not detect the master browser.
[root at testlab-route samba]# smbclient -L router -N

Broadcast pings only return a response from the machines own IP address.
Additionally, while 'net ads join' completes without issue, 'net ads info'
reports as follows:
[root at testlab-route samba]# net ads info
Didn't find the ldap server!
Thanks in advance.
