Error in log files

[David Collier-Brown]

  You actually should have asked this question in the samba at samba.org 
mailing list: samba-technical is about developing new version of 
Samba.  So I've redirected it...

	The stat cache was working pretty well, but then there
	was a disconenct (dsicussed below), and it was 
	seemingly flushed.

	I expect it to improve over time...

	The other end (the Windws client) disconnected,
	and said it was doing so, so Samba cleaned up.
	This is probably a client shutdown or a reboot.

	A client machine sent samba a unique machine name, JTS
	and asked it tor refresh it in the WINS name system.

	nmbd said "Huh? I'm not a WINS server!" 

	I think you have a client with samba's ip address in
	it's WINS tab (under networking, protocol TCP)
	Either provide an NT WINS servr address or tell
	samba to provide wins service.

	Have a look at
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch07_03.html
	for WINS hints, and chaper 2 for setting up the 
	windows machines.
