Local Master Browser and Win2K

[Tom Murphy]

Some more information about the "Local Master Browser" election being
lost.

My smb.conf entries:

os level =  254
domain master = no
local master = yes
preferred master = no

The nmb log:

[2000/04/03 13:50:07, 0]
nmbd/nmbd_nameregister.c:register_name_response(112)
  register_name_response: server at IP 144.81.30.140 rejected our name
registration of ETS<1d> with error code 6.

nmbd/nmbd_namelistdb.c:standard_fail_register(295)
  standard_fail_register: Failed to register/refresh name ETS<1d> on
subnet 144.81.30.21


I looked up 144.81.30.140.. and it's an NT Workstation 4.0 SP4 machine
that's sitting out there. I wonder why it rejected the name
registration of ETS<1d> since I don't think it has any authority on the
matter.

Any ideas?

Thanks so much in advance!
Tom
