Hi all,
Today our domain went down. When looking in the log it appears that a
windowsXPpro machine won the election. The domain controller has an
OSlevel of 65 (3.0.14a).
Restarting the smb process (/etc/init.d) resolved the problem.
How is it possible that the XP machine was able to win the election ?
After the election the XP machine (of course) failed to become the
master browser. But why didn't the linux machine succeeded to become
lmb again ?
Thanks in advance
Joost
