I've just downloaded and installed samba-1.9.17p1. As soon as I restarted nmbd, my console/syslog started to receive: nmbd[8556]: reply_netbios_packet: r_a not to be used when not a WINS server Comparing the source with samba-1.9.17 the 'DEBUG' line that generates this message did not exist before, so I simply commented it out in 'namepacket.c'. Does this message indicate a problem, of was it simply left in by mistake? System is SunOS 4.1.4/gcc serving WfW 3.11 clients. System IS configured as a WINS server. PS: Otherwise so far samba-1.9.17p1 seems fine for me, thanks! Regards, Mark Knight.
