[Samba] intermittent login problems (netbios related perhaps ??)
i am in desperate need for some help, i am having problems with students logging in at this school, continually trying / rebooting usually sorts the problem. also doing a nbtstat -R and will also allow students to logon most of the time. i have noticed that nbtstat -c shows are domain as on 81.4 when in reality it is on 81.1 , we had a problem with a share that when accessing would also be redirected to the shares on 81.4 so we disabled computer browser service (or what ever it was called) on the windows 2003 server this stopped the problem with typing in the unc path to our main server (sme server 7) and ending up on a completely different server. anyone have any ideas on what could be the cause, why could you get the wrong ip address for a netbios name ? does the login process rely on netbios names or am i looking in the wrong place ?? basically ideas for trouble shooting would be helpful, samba logs do not seem to really contain relevant data :/
