Hello fellow samba users,

 I have just recently grabbed the latest samba release ( 1.9.18p2 ) for
testing purposes. I have a Data General Aviion 5900 running DG/UX. My
problem lies in the fact that I keep receiving  the following message in
my
"/usr/local/samba/var/log.nmb" file when I start up version 1.9.18p2. I
keep getting this message in my log.nmb file every few minutes or so.

find_domain_master_name_query_fail: Unable to find the Domain Master
Browser nam
e DG2<1b> for the workgroup DG2. Unable to sync browse lists in this
workgroup.

 I didn't have this problem with the 1.9.18p1 release. I am using the
exact
same "smb.conf" file with 1.9.18p1 as I am with 1.9.18p2. I have
included a
portion of my "smb.conf" file.

[global]
comment = Global variables to apply to all shares
;Make my host show up in Network Neighborhood under DG2
workgroup = DG2
;set the security modes on a per share basis
security = share
;Gracefully exit any client connections that have been idle for 3
minutes
dead time = 3
;enable encryption communication between client/server
encrypt passwords = yes
;Users have different Unix login-id's than they do NT login-id's
username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/username.map
;Users MUST supply a username-password pair to access the share 
public = no
;DO NOT LOAD PRINTERS
load printers = no
wins server = xxx.xx.xx.x

[homes]
comment = Give everyone read/write access to their OWN home directory
Users MUST supply a username-password pair to access the share
public = no
hosts allow = "my comma seperated list of allowed hosts"

[tmp]
comment = Temporay space
;Explicitly set working path to be /tmp
path = /tmp
;Users MUST supply a username-password pair to access the share
public = no
hosts allow = "my comma seperated list of allowed hosts"

[sysadmin]
comment = Share for sysadmin file-system
path = /sysadmin
valid users = 'comma seperated list of allowed users'
create mask = 0777
hosts allow = "my comma seperated list of allowed hosts"

Any help would be appreciated. My samba server is DG/UX R4.11MU03 and I
have a couple of NT4/SP3 clients. 1.9.18p2 compiled cleanly without any
errors, and I have no errors when I run testparm on my smb.conf file. I
am
having no problems doing a "net use x: \\hostname\sharename". Everything
appears to be fine other than the message in my log.nmb file.
