Someone mentioned yesterday that they'd discovered that if the "server comment" string was over a certain length, the Samba server disappeared from browse lists. That rang a bell. Our division was renamed recently, and the new name is longer than the old one. I'd changed the server comment to reflect the change. A few days later, I noticed that the machine was no longer appearing in browse lists. I didn't put the two together until last night. So I shortened the comment, and it's back in the browse list for the domain it's in. I'm still running 1.9.18p10, so this one's been around for a while!
