Hi Everybody, Trying to solve the strange problems of samba over WAN I found something in the logs that can be usefull. When I try to see the trusting accounts on samba I receive the message: dfbsa58:~# net rpc trustdom list Password: Trusted domains list: TESTE-CE S-1-5-21-619649889-1864520048-1540833222 TESTE-MG S-1-5-21-555433511-900955293-314601362 Trusting domains list: TESTE-MG Unable to find a suitable server domain controller is not responding TESTE-CE Unable to find a suitable server domain controller is not responding The strange thing is these 2 machines are working fine on the side of the wan connection. looking for something diferent in the logs I found this message: [2004/03/24 18:10:51, 4] nmbd/nmbd_workgroupdb.c:dump_workgroups(271) dump_workgroups() dump workgroup on subnet 10.1.0.58: netmask= 255.255.0.0: GEPOR(3) current master browser = GEPOR05 GEBEM(2) current master browser = GEBEM06 TESTE-MATRIZ(1) current master browser = DFBSA58 DFBSA58 400c9b2b (Samba Server 3.0.7-Debian) TRIGO 40009a03 (trigo server (Samba 2.2.3a-13 for Debian)) DFBSA66 40029007 () [2004/03/24 18:10:51, 4] nmbd/nmbd_workgroupdb.c:dump_workgroups(271) dump_workgroups() dump workgroup on subnet UNICAST_SUBNET: netmask= 0.0.0.0: TESTE-MATRIZ(1) current master browser = UNKNOWN DFBSA58 40099b2b (Samba Server 3.0.7-Debian) Why, when samba looks over UNICAST_SUBNET it don?t find him self? I believe this is one of my problems. Can you confirm?
