similar to: current master browser = UNKNOWN , no longer in browse list

This looks like a bug to me, except . . . no one else seems to have encountered it, and it's in a pretty basic area, so there must be something wrong at our site. When the Unix server becomes a local master browser, Samba is unable to sync its browse list w/that of the DMB. None of our NT machines are having any trouble, and our tech. support guy says the DMB is in good health. Rebooting

I changed the ip on my samba 3.0.4 server from using dhcpd allotted 192.168.0.165 to a static 192.168.0.5 Now my windows clients get a message: 'the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted' but it is contacting the domain because otherwise it would have given me an error saying it can't find it. I have done a gg: search to no avail please help i am goining on

My FC 2 server with Samba 3.0.10 had been working fine before I removed the second NIC I had installed. Since that time I have been unable to convince Samba that it is the domain master browser; it continues to find an existing master browser at the IP address for the now non-existent NIC. I have searched to remove all references to the old IP address from configuration files, but have found

I run an IPsec/Freeswan VPN to connect 4 disparet windows LANS. I managed to RTFM until cross-subnet browsing worked (samba 2.0). Having upgraded to 2.2.3 It would seem that this feature is not working. BACKGROUND: originally all sources of information led me to understand that I would need a box running samba behind the firewall/IPsec box as I could not even ping a remote internal IP from the

I'm not sure where else to turn for this, I've seen this problem mentioned in a multiple places but haven't seen any resolution for it. Below is what's showing up in my remote samba WINS server. My setup is that I've got the samba servers connecting through a dedicated VPN. I've set up the WINS to allow for browsing across the VPN. If anyone can help me out or point me in

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:

I've recently setup a Samba Local Master Browser on a new subnet. It can communicate on ports 137 and 138 across subnets with my Samba Domain Master Browser, but when I query the Local Master, I don't get a complete browse list. The following entries shows up in /var/log/samba/log.nmbd at the local master: nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:domain_master_node_status_fail(262)

Howdy all -- I have discovered a bug in samba (I'm running v2.0.5a) when a NetBIOS scope ID is being used. Essentially, samba will use the configured scope ID for everything except for when nmbd tries to do a node status on the PDC as part of syncing the browser lists; when it does that node status, it does it *without* the scope ID, and it fails. Our network consists of a main IP subnet

Hello Sorry for my english I have a PDC with Samba and OpenLdap in Debian 5 lenny. I am testing group, users,policy, net join workstation.... bla bla bla. results very good.

It sure is hard to find info in the documentation/mailing list for a specific error. If an error log message was created by smbd, nmbd, or winbind, shouldn't the documentation contain a description, cause, and possible solution?

Hello All, I am having a problem trying to ger Samba wot work again. It was working a few days ago and now it has stopped. My OpenVPN is working just fine but Samba does not seem to find the names. I was also trying to set it up so that the users could browse to our PeoplesQuest workgroup after which they could login to their account. ----------------------------------------- [2005/08/21

I had to move my RedHat 5 box acting as a PDC to a new IP address. It is running samba 3.5.10. After the move, none of my windows or linux samba clients worked anymore. I tried rejoining some to the domain, but would get error Unable to find a suitable server Join to domain 'MRIRESEARCH' is not valid The old PDC IP address is 132.183.202.95 and nothing is at that IP anymore (for 4

I'm trying to set up Windows browsing between subnets. I've set up a domain master/WINS server on the .0 subnet, and local masters on the .42 and .254 subnets, and I'm running into the above error on one - just one - of the subnets. The strange thing is that I'm running exactly the same version of RHEL on another subnet - and I'm getting no error. 3.0.25 on RHEL5. The

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Sometime after I installed samba and got everything working, one of my colleagues changed the IP address on the box I did the install on. So after I got passed all the other issues that plaqued me after moving over to fedora 11, I discovered that I could not added Win clients to the domain. I dug into the log files: Jul 8 15:24:03 ldap2

Hi. Can someone tell me why I'm getting this error (see below) in my daemon error log every hour? In my smb.conf section, I have my Linux box set to: wins support = yes os level = 65 This message occurs even when all Windows workstations are shut off, so it must be something with my samba configuration on the Linux box. Help appreciated. Regards, Andy Liebman Jul 21 06:54:34

I recently reconfigured a box running FreeBSD 5.3 with Samba v. 3.0.7 running as PDC. It was servicing 2 networks, processing logons for 192.168.200.0/24 and 192.168.115.0/24. The reason for 2 networks was security, 115.0/24 had some stuff on it that the users on 200.0/24 shouldn't have access to. Before the reconfiguration, the system was working 100%. To make everything better I flattened

Hi all. I have a problem. I'm trying to let samba run as WINS server and as domain master. But if I run nmbd in debug mode it says: dump workgroup on subnet UNICAST_SUBNET: netmask= 10.8.0.1: FREAKYYDE(1) current master browser = UNKNOWN MASTER 40899a03 (master server) the servers hostname is master. i've tried to explicitly set it in the config but it

For some reason the Macintosh machines on our LAN have started taking over as master browser without actually providing. Mostly these are Leopard machines, and one Tiger machine. We had OS Level set to 255 and that does not seem to make a difference.
