Problem with DHCP

	Yes, we try with the same WINS servers dinamically and statically.

	And the same machine is Wins Server, Samba server and DHCP server!

	It's very strange...

	I'm going to sync the other wins server, but I think they are yet.

	Thanks, and if you have other ideas...

We run with all clients DHCPed, including DNS and WINS addresses with no
problems.

I assume the WINS server addresses you are giving through DHCP are the
same as you are testing the fixed WINS address?

check a client just after boot and do an "ipconfig /all" or winipconfig
and check that the wins and DNS addresses are showing up correctly.

Add the samba server as a static entry in WINS.

Check that if you have multiple WINS servers they are synced.

Good luck.
