[Samba] Re: Samba Losing election

[Craig White]

Aside from top posting which makes replying insanely difficult, you
failed to read his smb.conf which has some things that you are lacking.
Since you are apparently into frustration mode instead of contemplation
mode, I would suggest that you consider adding 'wins support = yes' and
'name resolve order = wins host bcast' - not sure about 'browse list =
yes/true' - I haven't used that one myself.
