Since upgrading to Samba 2.2.3a on several of our servers, we are having trouble with nmbd not maintaining the WINS registration. After the WINS server expires the record, our users in other subnets cannot find the server. Restarting nmbd registers the server again in WINS, but nmbd doesn't reregister at 20 minute intervals as before. I have compiled samba from source with: ./configure --prefix=/private/samba --with-syslog --without-winbind --with-quotas and here is the [global] section from my smb.conf: [global] security = domain password server = * hosts allow = 128.193. 127. encrypt passwords = true guest account = nobody debug level = 1 syslog = 0 name resolve order = wins host wide links = false wins server = 128.193.4.45 workgroup = SCF server string = Monolith The Black Box netbios name = monolith nt acl support = true log file = /var/log/samba/log.smb max log size = 50000 locking = yes Did something change between 2.2.2 and 2.2.3a? I'm not subscribed to this mailing list, so please cc me on any replies. Thanks, Andy

Please test the SAMBA_2_2 cvs tree and see if you still experience the problem. For some reason I thought we had fixed this before.... cheers, jerry --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hewlett-Packard http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team http://www.samba.org -- http://www.plainjoe.org "Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" 2ed.
