Samba is now a logon server for workgroup ... on subnet 127.0.0.1

[Mark Tilles]

I just finished setting up a Linux RedHat 6.1 system with Samba 2.0.5a.  I
cannot browse the system from a Windows Nt Domain, but I can browse it just
fine from another Linux samba system...

The line:

[2000/01/27 14:41:47, 0]
nmbd/nmbd_logonnames.c:become_logon_server_success(118)
become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a logon server for workgroup
BERKELEY on subnet 127.0.0.1 

looks suspicious to me.  The network I want to browse from is
198.147.235.0/24 - and this is where the other linux box is as well that
can connect.  The following is the output from my log files.  Would anyone
care to comment on suggestions why I am having this trouble?
