Hi all,
I have got some problem with samba and the browsing.
I've got a small network with 4-5 computers wich are using windows xp home
and pro.
There isn't domain, just a workgroup.
The samba serves the master browser and wins functions.
The problem came forward when the clinents get ip address via dhcp. The
situation is the following: the clients are dissapearing slowly from the browse
list.
I've debugged this:
When the windows clients get static ip, they are broadcasting in the network
like this:
[2006/01/01 00:05:45, 3] nmbd/nmbd_incomingdgrams.c:process_host_announce(116)
process_host_announce: from BYTER<00> IP 192.168.1.2 to MAGEX<1d>
for server BYTER.
When the clinets get the ip addresses via dhcp, then the announce cancelled and
about a half hour later the clinets are dissapearing from the brows list. In
the log:
[2006/01/01 00:01:31, 3] nmbd/nmbd_serverlistdb.c:expire_servers(212)
expire_old_servers: Removing timed out server BYTER
If somebody know anything about this problem, I'm looking forward to the
solution.
Thank You.
samba verison: 3.0.14a-3sarge
