Intermittent mapping problem with Samba 2.0.6

[Gary Nielson]

We found a problem with configuration of the secondary DNS server and that
seems to help. However, some folks are still not able to mount all their
shares. I am trying to figure out what these log entries mean for one user
as an example, wbest, who could not access some shares. What does, for
instance, the map_share_mode: Incorrect value mean? And true and
anonymous connection and attempted and deny access? Any help appreciated.
