Hi,

I am configuring a network with two subnets with a different workgroup in each subnet. My aim is to have users being able to view and access shares on both workgroups. I have a Samba server in each subnet/workgroup, configured as both the domain and local master for each workgroup. Each server is also the WINS server for its subnet. The setup is like this:

Subnet1:
network - 192.168.10.0/24
server IP - 192.168.10.254
workgroup - Group1

Subnet2:
network - 192.168.20.0/24
server IP - 192.168.20.254
workgroup - Group2

The two servers are configured identically, except for the information above, so the smb.conf for the Group1 server looks like this:

[global]
       workgroup = GROUP1
       netbios name = GROUP1_SRV
       domain master = yes
       local master = yes
       preferred master = yes
       os level = 65
       smb ports = 139
       dns proxy = no
       socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
       wins support = yes
       name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast host
       interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.10.254/24 127.0.0.1/8
       bind interfaces only = yes
       remote announce = 192.168.20.254/GROUP1
       remote browse sync = 192.168.20.254
       hosts allow = 127. 192.168.10. 192.168.20.

The problem is that a machine in Group1 can see all the machines in it's workgoup, plus the network for Group2 appears in network neighborhood, but the machines and shares in Group2 do not.

To troubleshoot, I ran smbtree with debug level 5. What I picked out from all the output was:

Cannot find master browser for workgroup GROUP2

How can I resolve this?
