Hi.. I've recently started having some problems with Samba (not the usual functionality issues) now that I'm trying to get Amanda up and running. My Samba server (Sparc Ultra Enterprise 450, Solaris 2.6) is unable to lookup NT hostnames for some reason. Some it can lookup, others it can't -- make that "most" it can't! In looking through the logs, I'm finding the stuff below and I'm wondering if there is a problem with my domain/workgroup. The network people here have been re-organizing our super-domains over the last few weeks and I'm wondering if perhaps I'm getting nuked due to something related to that. One interesting thing to note is that Samba appears to be sending a host announce for DH (that is the workgroup Samba is in), and a response is returned at the end from another NT Workstation box, and NOT the PDC.. Now I'm definately a NT networking newbie, but that sounds fishy to me! Any ideas are appreciated! I've also included the top-half of my smb.conf file.. ;======================= Global Settings ====================================[global] debuglevel = 3 workgroup = DH comment = Justice Samba Server admin users = root load printers = no printing = sysv log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/users.map max log size = 50 hide dot files = yes preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes guest account = guest encrypt passwords = yes status = yes ; dead time = 10 lock directory = /usr/local/samba/var/locks locking = yes share modes = yes wins server = 129.193.108.22 socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=16384 SO_RCVBUF=16384 ; read raw = no ; max xmit = 16384 ; Security modes: USER uses Unix username/passwd, SHARE uses WfW type passwords ; SERVER uses an other SMB server (eg: Windows NT Server or Samba) ; to provide authentication services security = user ;============================ Share Definitions =============================..... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------ Name query Removing dead netbios entry for 129.4.144.255 DH(1d) (num_msgs=1) Removing dead name GREYHAVEN(20) Name query from 129.4.144.73 for name SATCOM<0x1b> Search for SATCOM(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.73 for name SATCOM<0x1b> Search for SATCOM(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.73 for name SATCOM<0x1b> Search for SATCOM(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Updated server entry P02634395 of type 40071003 () to DH 129.4.144.255 Wrote browse list /usr/local/samba/var/locks/browse.dat response for DH(1d) from 129.4.144.5(137) (bcast=No) Name query Removing dead netbios entry for 129.4.144.255 DH(1d) (num_msgs=1) sending host announce to 129.4.144.255 for DH(1d) Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1c> Search for WORKGROUP(1c) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1c> Search for WORKGROUP(1c) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1c> Search for WORKGROUP(1c) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1c> Search for WORKGROUP(1c) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1c> Search for WORKGROUP(1c) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1b> Search for WORKGROUP(1b) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found Name query from 129.4.144.47 for name WORKGROUP<0x1c> Search for WORKGROUP(1c) - types 0x20 0x0 only: name not found response for DH(1d) from 129.4.144.5(137) (bcast=No)
