samba - Feb 2000 - Why does Samba 2.0.6 like other systems but not itself?

I'm running samba on a SPARC20 running Solaris 2.4.

I have been running v2.0.5a successfully for quite some time.

I've tried a couple of times to move up to 2.0.6 but there seems
to be a problem that I can't diagnose easily.

2.0.6 builds with no problems
2.0.6 installs with no problems
2.0.6 starts up with no problems
smbstatus returns correct info with no problems
smbclient -L some-NT-host works fine
smbclient -L THISHOST craps out!!

I set "logging" to 5 and get this info out:
pm_process() returned Yes
load_client_codepage: loading codepage 850.
added interface ip=144.115.201.51 bcast=144.115.201.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Client started (version 2.0.6).

the corresponding (?) entries in the logfile would seem to be:

Why will samba talk to other machines but not to itself??
Are there paremeters to tweak that I need to know about?

Known bug in 2.0.6 when you use a DNS name instead of a
NetBIOS name as the "password server" parameter.

I have fixed this for 2.0.7, you could try downloading
the 2.0.7pre1 snapshot, or as a temp fix just just the
NetBIOS name instead of the DNS name or IP address for
the password server.
