Hi
I am using the cvs branch 2.1 (september 99) and it works very well.
samba is running as a PDC on a linux redhat 6.0.
On the net : 65 NT 3.51 workstations.
My question is :
- Is there a limit in the number of NT stations you can have in your domain (or the number of login) ?
I noticed that when the number of 60 smbd was reached(but maybe it is due to something else) , the PDC became lost :
- on some nt stations you cannot view the shares of other stations (neither the shares of the PDC)
- you get an error message saying your profile is not available ( the profiles are based on machine names).It looks as if the PDC didn't recognize the name of the client machine.

I tried today the latest cvs but it doesn't change anything .
Any idea ?
Thanks
