[Samba] smbstatus shows no hostnames (3.5.1)

[Christoph Beyer]

Oh,

by the way nmblookup looks fine, at the same time:

[printserver] /global/spool/samba_logs # nmblookup -T 131.169.214.117
querying 131.169.214.117 on 131.169.56.255
zitpcx16179.desy.de, 131.169.214.117 131.169.214.117<00>

????

Come on someone must have an opinion on this ?????

cheers
christoph
