I keep getting the error 'Unable to find the Domain Master Browser' in my
log,nmbd
below is an extract from my error log;
I've added: local master = yes , preferred master = yes to my smb.conf
I used swat to create configuration file. Trying to conect in with an XP
box, I've enabled MS networks, wins server -> 192.168.0.1,
I've added my XP user/pass to the samba DB, open ports 135:139 in iptables.
When i try and visit network neighbourhood from windows, i get error:
'<workgroup name> is not accesable, You might not have permission to use
this netowrk resource'
i noticed that its trying to bind the wins server to my public ip, would
this be my problem?
how can i get it to bind to a specific interface, I've pasted the error and
my smb.conf below
really appreciate any suggestions
thanks :)
