Hello,
I have tried to find that info, but couldn't yet find it in TOSHARG or
"Samba-3 By Example" :
A client has one NT-PDC running without WINS-service and a
Samba-Domain-Member-Server that is currently the WINS-Server.
I have

so Samba does not get Master Browser.
NTSERVER is #1c, #1b and #1d ...
My question:
Does the WINS-Server also have to be the Master Browser?
Would it be better to enable WINS on the PDC and let Samba use it via
"wins server=NTSERVER" ?
Samba-3.0.9-Suse, BTW.
