similar to: syncing browse lists - it doesn't!

I'm having two problems. I encountered the second while trying to set up a clean environment to work on the first. Can somebody tell me if (a) I've done something obviously wrong, or (b) this is a known Samba bug? Any help is appreciated. John. First problem: From nmbd: domain_master_node_status_fail: Doing a node status request to the domain master browser for workgroup

Greetings. I'm running samba 2.2.1a on a network that consists mostly of linux servers and win2k clients. There are N subnets here (roughly 18 or 20; I lost track :) and cross subnet browsing is no issue. What is an issue is that machines which go offline tend to remain in the browse lists -- forever. Gack. There are two main samba servers here: one which is used for file/print

I have a network with 3 subnets. There is a PDC one one subnet, and a WINS server on each of the first two subnets which are replication partners. (These three machines are running Windows 2000 Server.) So my setup looks something like this: Topology: 10.50.x.x | +------+------+ | | 10.0.x.x 10.100.x.x 10.50.x.x: Server 1: Win2k:

Hello. Browsing accross subnets fails because "route2-3" can't sync its local browse list with the domain master browser "classix", which is also the WINS server. Everything else is fine. There is 1 and only 1 WINS server (classix) and no NT server. The error message in nmb log of route2-3 is: ==================================

Hi, I'm running 1.9.18p7 in two places (two separate networks): one on Solaris 2.5 and one on Linux 2.0.33 (RedHat 4.1). The latter works fine, browsing included, 'smbclient -L server' lists the machines and workgroups/domains. However, this is on a small (two subnet) network. However, the Solaris installation does not appear to be working properly (for browsing... everything

I've succeeded in making my samba server visible around the net, however I can't convince the thing to appear in the browse lists on remote subnets. I've read John Terpstra's article on configuring a browser at http://samba.anu.edu.au/samba/ftp/docs/BROWSING-Config.txt however my (admittedly willful) ignorance of Microsoft networking is making this article seem rather

Referencing: http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/network_administration_guides/samba_reference_guide/17_NetworkBrowsing_34.html I've got two subnets (192.168.2.1 and 192.168.1.1). All the machines on both subnets are running XP Home or Pro and are all part of the same workgroup (WORKGROUP). I've added an OpenSUSE box on x.x.2.1 and have set it as the WINS server with a very simple

(Samba version 1.9.18p4) I want to set up my environment thusly: - 2 workgroups, each composed of multiple subnets. - Each workgroup has a DMB and a WINS server (Samba only - no NT) - The two workgroups should collate browse lists so that clients on either workgroup can browse and connect to hosts on the opposite workgroup. I've read the documentation in BROWSING.txt and it does not appear

Hello, I need to use WINS browsing to allow Mac computers to list Windows served printers. Mac clients and Windows print server (Windows 2012R2) are on separate subnets: - Mac clients on 10.1.0.0/16 subnet - print server on 10.10.0.0/16 subnet A Samba server (10.1.10.24) is a master browser on subnet 10.1 and another Samba server (10.10.31.73) is a master browser on subnet 10.10 each server has

Well I figured it out.. did not know that I could make a host file on the winblows client.

I've RTFM (inlcuding the very nice BROWSING.txt and BROWSING-Config.txt) as well as the archives and I can't find any info on my particular problem. Any assistance at all would be most appreciated! Background: I am trying to use samba to control the browse lists for our main workgroup throughout our enterprise. I set up a samba server on AIX. It is a WINS server, as well as the Domain

I have problems to get browse lists from other workgroups across subnets. On win95 network neighbourhood I have a complete list form all computers in the same workgroup (including computers located on an other subnet) and a workgroup list. But if I try to look at the computers on an other workgroup I get an error message: workgroup not available. The subnet has an samba server (2.0.3) configured

Hi, I have read all I can find about browsing (BROWSING.txt, BROWSING-Config.txt, SWAT pages, etc. There are many discussions on the precise dynamics involved in Local Master Browsers synchronising with a Domain Master Browser (in a cross-subnet environment). I am trying to understand the mechanism that is used when there are Multiple Domains on the same network, and how the Browse List is

I'll ask this again, as nobody has answered or addressed this issue yet. 2.0.7pre2 (although it has never worked) Intel Linux 2.2.13 Samba server serves as WINS server for 3 domains. It joined 1 of the domains using smbclient. security=domain I can see entries for the 3 domains in WINS.DAT, and entries for the 3 PDCs in WINS.DAT. On the same subnet as the samba server, there is an NT3.51

Greetings, I recently upgraded my Samba server and am now running Debian sid's samba-2.999+3.0.alpha20-4. I have the following domain / workgroup / browsing options set in /etc/samba/smb.conf: interfaces = eth0 192.168.54.0/24 192.168.52.0/24 os level = 65 local master = yes domain master = yes domain logons = no preferred master = yes enhanced browsing = yes

I am very confused by how our browsing works. I have three samba servers on two different subnets all set up to be in the same workgroup. (No other machines are in that workgroup.) None of them have a guest account set up. When nt clients browse the network (in explorer's map network drive), they do see the samba workgroup. If you click on the samba workgroup, some clients are given the

Hi, I'm trying to set up browsing across subnets to provide an 'enterprise'-wide (sorry for the MS term ;-) browse list / Network Neighbourhood. I've read BROWSING.TXT, but I can't see how machines on different subnets in different domains/workgroups sync up (using Samba, anyway). On my local subnet, I've set up a clunky old Linux 386 (Samba 1.9.18p8) as the browse
