samba - Jun 2004 - nmbd/nmbd_namequery.c:(104)

Hello all,

I'm running samba 2.2.4 on Sun Solaris  version Sunos 5.8
generic_108528-17, Samba version 2.2.4

I'm getting this error in my /var/adm/messages  and don't know what it
means, I suspect it is also responsible for causing  the delays in the
application running from the shares.

It is happening every couple of minutes. 
Has anyone seen this before?
What should I do to fix it?

Regards

Rob.

Hello

I'm getting this error in my /var/adm/messages  and don't know what it
means. I tried to google it, even translating Spanish and German emails
on the subject to get a handle on it, but no luck.

It is happening every couple of minutes. 

I am experiencing intermittent "freeze" and delays in the application
using the samba share, I'm not sure if the log contents are related or
not and so would like an explanation.

The system while essential has a limited life time so I will upgrade
samba if necessary but would prefer to leave it if I can get away with
it. The samba provides file services on a Solaris disk to an AD win2k
network and it's clients.

The Samba is at V2.2.4 on Sun Microsystems Solaris 8.
