You were right, that did show something, but the result is interesting.

Here is what I've set in the smb.conf:
include = /etc/samba/smb.conf.%m

Here is what I've found in the log file for a machine that had an own 
smb.conf file (smb.conf.vendeg):

  setup_new_vc_session: New VC == 0, if NT4.x compatible we would close 
all old resources.

The interesting thing is that this was found in the log file 
192.168.0.31.log, and not in the vendeg.log file.

I have "log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log" also set in the smb.conf file.

What do you think?
It seems to me, that this leads back to another thread I started yesterday 
with a subject "netbios name resolution"...

Thanks for the idea,
Kolos
