Looking for a solution to this problem. I have Googled all over the
place but haven't found a definitive answer.
I have a Samba Server that ONCE was on a network where there was
SECOND Samba Server with IP Address 192.168.20.3. Today, the FIRST
server is on a network with an address range 10.0.0.0/255.255.255.0
and it has no way of finding that SECOND Server 192.168.20.3.
However, /var/log/messages is full of errors that say:
Nov 4 04:07:29 fileserver nmbd[5248]: [2007/11/04 04:07:29, 0]

I can see that the file /var/cache/samba/wins.dat includes a reference
to the IP Address 192.168.20.3 (I have seen some postings suggesting
that wins.dat can be the cause of this error). If I delete wins.dat
and restart samba, the reference to 192.168.20.3 comes back.
I can state with total confidence that there are no network interfaces
on this machine configured to be in the 192.168.20.x range. In fact,
only one of 3 network interfaces is currently active and has an IP
Address.
Is there any way that I can get this Samba Server to stop looking for
192.168.20.3?

I had a similar problem -- deleted wins.dat and forced the entry in
smb.conf:
interfaces = eth0
restarting the service wasn't enough -- had to STOP the service(s) and
then restart.
That fixed it.
