hi
is it possible that it looses the master browser status, and it still
thinks that it is the master browser? (which it does)
thanks

Subject: [Samba] samba loses its browse list
hello
i've asked this question a while ago, but noone could help me with it..
ill try to give more detail in this message:
so, there is a samba file server on our lan, and the clients are all
windows XP's.
when i start the samba server, it becomes the local/domain master, and
starts to build up its browse list (i can see that from the browse.dat
file, and when i browse the network i can see computers in it)
but after some while, cant quite define the time, it loses the list
(browsing then network doesnt show up computers, and the browse.dat file
becomes EMPTY)
anyone has a clue, what could be causing this?
or, do you need any other information?
Please check your network. Seems that one of your XPs is becoming the master
browser. Please the nmbd logs on your samba server to know which box is
becoming the master browser. If it's an XP machine, check Microsoft website.
I seem to remember that there are two settings in Windows which will prevent
a Windows box becoming the master browser.
Cheers,
Guu
