I read the debug logs and noticed the following error:

Code: Select all

Aug 1 21:47:11 localhost nmbd[1662]: [2010/08/01 21:47:11, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:585(collect_all_workgroup_names_from_wins_server) Aug 1 21:47:10 localhost nmbd[1662]: Cannot find my workgroup WORKGROUP on subnet UNICAST_SUBNET. Aug 1 21:47:10 localhost nmbd[1662]: collect_all_workgroup_names_from_wins_server:
I did a "service smb restart" and then "service nmb restart".
That did fix the problem but gave me a new one.
Now i'm getting the following error:

Code: Select all

Aug 1 21:48:17 localhost nmbd[20121]: Unable to sync browse lists in this workgroup. Aug 1 21:48:17 localhost nmbd[20121]: Unable to find the Domain Master Browser name WORKGROUP<1b> for the workgroup WORKGROUP. Aug 1 21:48:17 localhost nmbd[20121]: find_domain_master_name_query_fail: Aug 1 21:48:17 localhost nmbd[20121]: [2010/08/01 21:48:17, 0] nmbd/nmbd_browsesync.c:350(find_domain_master_name_query_fail)
Any ideas??

this is actually harmless, if noisy.

it's designed to play well in environments where there is already a master.

we ought to put it in the faq.
