We have a samba server acting as a PDC for approx 100 Windows 2000 workstations, and it has been doing so very well for the last year.

I am using LDAP as a backend with Samba. Thanks. -- James

Our domain controller is running Samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 8. We have XP laptops. We swap between a builtin network card, docking port and wireless card. All of these have separate IP addresses. If I say, boot up with the wireless card, then remove it and use the builtin network card, the IP address in wins.dat on the server doesn't change. It still has the IP address of the wireless card.

Hello all.... I need help and I'm just about at my wits end. First let me state that I can not give logfiles in email since the Samba servers are on the secure side of my world and contain sensitive information. If by my stating my problem, I am hoping that someone will point me in certain directions that I have not tried. We have two samba servers on our site. Both are running Samba 3.0.0.
