Hi everybody ! I have installed Samba 3.0.8pre1-0.pre1.3 which is default version on FC3 making a fileserver and local master browser for my LAN . There is a machine called DAN ( running W98se ) which stops my Samba LMB. The nmbd.log says : .... ***** [2006/05/21 18:31:11, 0] nmbd/nmbd_incomingdgrams.c:process_local_master_announce(311) process_local_master_announce: Server DAN at IP 172.22.37.54 is announcing itself as a local master browser for workgroup REDACTIE and we think we are master. Forcing election.
