Hello,
I've got a samba/win98 problem. This occurs with samba 2.05a and
slackware linux 7.0 and freebsd 3.4-release and samba 2.06. I've got two
machines, one a pure 98 machine, the other split 50-50 linux and freebsd.
All is looking well, samba is my local master, will always win elections
etc. Both machines show up and all is good until I restart samba. At that
point no matter which machine I have up either the bsd or linux machine I
loose the 98 machine for as long as half an hour. My smb.conf file is
below, any ideas please e-mail.
Thanks.
Dave.
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
"testparm"
# to check that you have not many any basic syntactic errors.

startup
