I am using Samba-PDC-LDAP with samba-3.0.20b-1. On my file servers I am
using samba-3.0.10-1.4.
I'm not sure exactly what is happening but every couple of weeks the
file servers disappear form network neighborhood. I checked browstat on
my Windows system and it points to my PDC as the master browser and I
checked the wins.dat file on my PDC and the systems were there. I did
not check the browse.dat file before correcting this latest problem (by
restarting the nmbd service on the systems in question). Is there a
relationship between samba versions and systems dropping out of network
neighborhood? What does this indicate when a system drops out of
network neighborhood, is it not reporting correctly to the master browser?
