NetBIOS scope and local browse master sync
Hello everyone -- a few days ago, I posted a bug report (as instructed by samba-bugs), and was wondering if anyone was able to confirm it -- being a relative samba novice, and a definite source code novice, I have to make sure that what I *think* that I see (the fact that samba has a bug in that it doesn't use the configured NetBIOS scope ID when it tries to sync browser lists on becoming a local master browser) is true. If it's not true, then I need to get our network/firewall guys involved in this... All that being said, I've captured a lot of packets in my day, and the node status packets that samba's sending out when it's starting to try to become local master browser *definitely* don't have the scope ID properly specified. Thanks a ton in advance; I appreciate any help that can be given on this. (I've sent this to the samba and samba-ntdom lists, as I'm not exactly sure which it falls under -- apologies in advance if this isn't kosher.) Jason Levine
