[Samba] Server IP address change - still referencing old one
I?m running SerNet Samba 4.1.2 on Debian Wheezy. I?ve changed the IP address of the server, and in log.nmbd I?m getting the following messages: Become_domain_master_query_success: There is already a domain master browser at <Old IP> for workgroup <DOMAIN> registered on subnet UNICAST_SUBNET. Become_logon_server_success: Samba is now a local logon server for workgroup <DOMAIN> on subnet <New IP>. Samba is now a local master browser for workgroup <DOMAIN> on subnet <New IP>. Domain_master_node_status_fail: Doing a node status request to the domain master browser For Workgroup <DOMAIN> at IP <Old IP> failed. Cannot sync browser lists. It appears to be a common problem, but I?ve tried the quoted solution of backing-up then deleting browse.dat and wins.dat, and also wins.tdb. However, when I restart, the problem reappears, and wins.dat contains entries for the old IP address. I think the neworking side of things is okay ? the hosts file and interface seem fine, and I can ping the server at the new address, but not the old one.
