I'm having an issue with my samba Domains. When I browse to Microsoft Windows Network with either Windows 2000 or WinXP I see two copies of the Domain. I see the proper domain (I'm using Matrix for testing) "Matrix" and I see another "Matrix " that appears to have 5 or 6 spaces or a tab appended onto the end. The domain w/o the spaces is the proper one, the one with the spaces doesn't contain any servers or workstation. This seems to have started after upgrading to samba 3.0.4. Has anyone seen this before? And if so what's the solution to this, I don't want my users to get confused. Thanks, Paul Espinosa I'm using samba 3.0.4-1 and here is the relevant portion of my smb.conf: #======================= Global Settings [global] #============== Services =============================== wins support = no wins server = 10.10.10.10 time server = yes #============== Logging =============================== log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 0 loglevel=0 syslog=0 #============== Server Definitions ===================== workgroup = MATRIX server string netbios name = zion security = user encrypt passwords = yes dns proxy = no preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes case sensitive = no username map = /etc/samba/smbusers Dos charset = 850 Unix charset = ISO8859-1 passdb backend = tdbsam socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 local master = yes domain master = yes preferred master = yes domain logons = yes

After commenting out the charset options in smb.conf and removing browse.dat and wins.dat, it was solved for me. Remember to stop the smb service befor the changes and start afterwards. Jeremias M.
