Hi,
I run Samba 2.2.8 on a 3-node peer-to-peer LAN (named 'EREBUS') and have
it configured to act as the WINS server for my two Microsoft W2K nodes.
Things work OK most of the time, but browsing the LAN from the Samba
host has always seemed to be broken slightly.
One of the W2K nodes ('ISZKAZ') never seems to appear in the BROWSE.DAT
file and has a strange-looking double entry in the WINS.DAT file:
$ type wins.dat
VERSION 1 155096
"__MSBROWSE__#01" 1091286380 255.255.255.255 e4R
"EREBUS#00" 1091323845 255.255.255.255 c4R
"EREBUS#1e" 1091323845 255.255.255.255 c4R

"SZEGED#20" 1091323845 192.168.0.3 46R
Can anyone help me understand what is going on with Samba and the node
'ISZKAZ'? FWIW, browsing from the two W2K nodes (i.e., with NET VIEW
and the GUI) appears normal.
Thanks.
Terry
