Hello my friends.
Looks like I had seen some light with this small issue.
Normally wet u have a PDC in your network, with Winboxes, AD, NT4, u
must have at least 1 Master Browser rigth?
Well at home I have just 2 winboxes xp pro sp3, every time I setup a
samba server, nomally I stop the computer browser services of my
clients, in this case my 2 winboxes, this way samba could quickly
became the master browser of my network.
Like I told u before, one of my issues is that my domain name
doesn't appear at my network, just the "workgroup" of the winboxes
machines, every time I try to browse my networks with my winboxes, it
took a while to answer or some times just stop working and finally,
won't show me my samba domain.
If I read the nmbd.log, it tells me that samba is the master
browser... cool but is not happening.
Last night I decide to enable one of my winboxes "Computer Browser"
service and boom, I could browse my network and see my domain.
This tell me that samba is having issues trying to handle the
network browser, right now I could not add my box to the doman, but
at least I could see my domain there.
I follow the manuals Dale at work and no issue here, even that I
have 2 domains running, but as soon as I start samba, it appears at my
network.
The issue is at home.
Well If u have some tips guys about how to troubleshoot this I will
appreciated.
Thanks all for your help and time!!!
