Ok, well I've found the problem but I can't explain why.
Using smbutil from opensolaris, and nmblookup from ubuntu, heres my results
with an opensolaris machine, ubuntu machine, and vista machine:
smbutil status solaris
Server: SOLARIS
smbutil status ubuntu
Workgroup: HOME
Server: UBUNTU
smbutil status activity
Workgroup: HOME
Server: ACTIVITY
nmblookup -S solaris
querying solaris on 192.168.1.255
192.168.1.99 solaris<00>
Looking up status of 192.168.1.99
SOLARIS <00> - B
SOLARIS <20> - B
nmblookup -S ubuntu
querying ubuntu on 192.168.1.255
192.168.1.103 ubuntu<00>
Looking up status of 192.168.1.103
UBUNTU <00> - B <ACTIVE>
UBUNTU <03> - B <ACTIVE>
UBUNTU <20> - B <ACTIVE>
..__MSBROWSE__. <01> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
HOME <1d> - B <ACTIVE>
HOME <1e> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
HOME <00> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
nmblookup -S activity
querying activity on 192.168.1.255
192.168.1.70 activity<00>
Looking up status of 192.168.1.70
ACTIVITY <00> - B <ACTIVE>
HOME <00> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
ACTIVITY <20> - B <ACTIVE>
HOME <1e> - <GROUP> B <ACTIVE>
Note the missing workgroup. BUT, looking at the diag results from earlier its
there...
re-joining the workgroup fixes everything, but I can't explain how it was lost
in the first place.
Anyway, it looks like a bug but not a reproducible one.
Fixes my problem, except my pvr still doesnt like it, but I spose thats a
problem on the pvr side of things.
