Thanks for the reply, I have the wins set to yes and I am seeing wins entries int he /var/cache/samba/wins.dat if that helps.
In looking around it would seem that I do not have a libnss_wins.o or libnss_wins.0.2 installed anywhere in the system. Would this be the root of this issue. Also is there anything special that needs to be done to Winxp to get it to join a Samba 3.0 PDC? Regards, +------------------------------------------+ | Richard Houston .^. | | R.L.H.
