I submitted a similar problem about a week ago, and haven't seen it in
the list.  Note that the address that's claimed as the origin is the
net broadcast address.

We're seeing the same behavior here:

query_name_response: Multiple (2) responses received for a query on subnet
  192.52.153.11 for name TIOGA<1d>. This response was from IP 192.52.153.255

There's a problem with the message - "192.52.153.11" isn't a subnet.
In fact it's the host on which nmbd is running!

Our net broadcast address is 192.52.153.255.

How high does the nmbd debuglevel have to be set to see where the
responses are coming from?
