Hi, I am running SAMBA ver 1.9.16P9 on a QNX operating system. If I increase the system time using the date utility I see broadcasts equal to the the time differnce /12 mins. This seems to be the announce packets....Is there a way to disable these packets this QNX box gets its time from a TIMER server,,,,SOmetimes the time server may come with a huge time difference of 2-4years and suddenly we see tons of broadcasts on the network. Is anybody seeing it in other Operating systems or is it my smbd.conf Thanks in advance. Jitendra Patel
