samba - Oct 2002 - nmbd: wins: records not updated

Hello.

I have problem. I dont understand root of this problem and I say facts:
Have samba wins-server and many win-clients and two samba-clients.
At wins-server in browse.dat exists all clients, in wins.dat once in 2-3 days
records about samba-clients
is not available.

In smb.conf at samba-clients exist this param:"remote announce =
IP_of_wins_server"
In log of wins-server: "process_host_announce .... ttl=300 .... ", but
in table "wins_write_database" TTL for this client not changed.

Now, I restart samba-client every 2-3 day. But it's not right way.

What I do not right ? Or this is bug ?

I try samba 2.2.3a and 2.2.5-10

Thanks for your time. It's very big problem for me.

Why you use "remote announce"?

Are all client in the same workgroup/domain? If so, use "wins server
<ipaddressofwinsserver>" instead.

Take a look in "man smb.conf" to the keywords

	remote announce
	wins server
	wins proxy
	wins support

and last, but not least "BROWSING.txt" and
"BROWSING-Config.txt".
