Apparently it is with dns - we've seen the problem on a couple of sites, and
**think** (don't know for sure yet!) that we fixed it by:
- Installing dnscache - if you're running named bind it to the external
interface, and dnscache to the internal
- Make sure samba is using the default lookup list (host wins something from
memory)
- Make sure dhcpd.conf has node type 2 , and netbios-name-server someserver
Hopefully by the end of today I should know whether this has actually worked
for us; email me if you want more information.
Cheers,
Chris

Subject: problem with write_socket_data and write_socket
I got the following problem with samba 2.0.6 running on OpenBSD 2.7
[2001/01/23 12:46:50, 0]
/usr/ports/net/samba/work/samba-2.0.6/source/lib/util_sock.c:write_socket_da
ta(537)
write_socket_data: write failure. Error = Broken pipe

/usr/ports/net/samba/work/samba-2.0.6/source/lib/util_sock.c:write_socket(56

write_socket: Error writing 4 bytes to socket 6: ERRNO = Broken pipe
[2001/01/23 12:46:50, 0]
/usr/ports/net/samba/work/samba-2.0.6/source/lib/util_sock.c:send_smb(751)
Error writing 4 bytes to client. -1. Exiting
As far as I have been able to gather from the archives, this is a problem
with revers DNS?
Is there no other way to fix this than by setting up reverse dns?
On our local network we havn't even got forward DNS set up. We use WINS,
but I'm not sure if the ones that set up the NT servers and the domain
have done it correctly.
Anyone got any tips?
