Greetings again ...

	Funny, it seems that I am looking for alot of help this 
release ... never mind ... hey goes ...

	If I do a 'smbclient -U sqlbackup -L \\SQLSCALA' I get ...
	
added interface ip=10.1.1.1 bcast=10.1.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
wins_srv_died(): Could not mark WINS server 127.0.0.1 down.
Address not found in server list.
Got a positive name query response from 10.1.1.250 ( 
10.1.1.250 )
Password:
Domain=[SCANIA-ZA-DM] OS=[Windows NT 4.0] Server=[NT LAN 
Manager 4.0]

	What worries me is the
'wins_srv_died(): Could not mark WINS server 127.0.0.1 down.
Address not found in server list.'

	Now I can see the server in /var/cache/samba/browse.dat as
'"SQLSCALA"                40019007 "" 
       "XXXXXX-ZA-DM"

	And I can see in /var/cache/samba/wins.dat as
"SQLSCALA#00" 1013890092 10.1.1.251 64R
"SQLSCALA#03" 1013890092 10.1.1.251 64R
"SQLSCALA#20" 1013890092 10.1.1.251 64R

	Can anyone tell me why I am getting these errors?

Thanks
Mailed
Lee
