Hi,
I am having an issue browsing my work group, i have made the samba server the master browser and it wins the elections. As far as i can tell from the nmbd.logs it is also collecting hosts for the workgroup but when you try to list the workgroup this error is recorded in the messages log :
nss_wins[7417]: [2004/09/14 09:54:23, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(570)
nss_wins[7417]: Can't become connected user!
Now all users can use \\server and list the shares and access them all, so all users and passwords are correct.
windows gives the error "Workgroup is not accessible, you might not have permission to use the network resource"
The server is running Fedora Core 1 and samba version : 3.0.6-2.FC1
Also i had a problem the other day where some wins entries were wrong so i deleted the wins.dat and restarted the server, but the wrong wins entries reappeared. after rebooting the server it seems to be working now, apart from another samba server doesnt add it self to the wins server list. It has win support = false and win server = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx in its config.
The best bits of my smb.conf is below, thanks for any help.
