[Samba] Re: Browsing Problems

Hi guys. I am posting a reply here because I haven't seen any replies to my
earlier thread "Browse sync problem," thinking one of you might have the
expertise to help me :)

I have 3 subnets (freeswan connection) and believe I have DMB and 2 X LMB's
and WINS configured properly (according to samba docs.) I can't seem to get
the browse lists to sync/collate however :( The announcements seem to be OK
and the sync's initiate however there are always 0 records returned on and
the browse.dat files on each box contain only the machines on that subnet
(my understanding is they should merge/sync.)

Here is a partial log. Thanks for any help!
