[Samba] samba synchronization of browse lists.
Hello, I just installed samba 2.2.3a on my FreeBSD 4.4 box and am trying to connect to it using my win2ksp2 machine. I've got it set up to be the local master browser in my workgroup for my internal network. However it's not working. I checked the logs and in log.nmbd it's trying to bind to a domain master browser for the browse lists, which i obviously don't have. Is this a new feature of samba? It's not showing any of my machines in my network places\entire network. Log file below. Thanks. Dave.

Seems to me like you didn't increase the weight of the samba box. I would always recommend going to at least 60 if there are no NT servers on your network, and its never a bad idea to just enable wins support in samba, just let nmb do its thing and all will be good. The reason your seeing those error messages is that browsing election take place whenever a box comes up on the network, the weight decides what wins the browser election process, go with wins and you can avoid the problem ----- Original Message ----- From: <awesome-dave1@juno.com> To: <samba@samba.org> Sent: Wednesday, February 20, 2002 9:35 PM Subject: [Samba] samba synchronization of browse lists.> Hello, > I just installed samba 2.2.3a on my FreeBSD 4.4 box and am trying to > connect to it using my win2ksp2 machine.
