Hello Samba List,

I'm running a Samba 3.0.22 PDC on Solaris 9. Things got a bit peculiar when I added a 2nd network interface.

The two subnets are a primary network that carries all the client traffic and a tape-backup/admin network that is not accessible to any clients, ie.
aaa.bbb.ccc.241 - bge0 - primary network (address suppressed)
192.168.254.254 - bge1 - admin/backup network

I've configured Samba (I think) to ignore the admin network...

       socket address = aaa.bbb.ccc.241
       interfaces = bge0 lo0
       bind interfaces only = true
       hosts allow = aaa.bbb.ccc. , 127.

However, some devices are getting the notion that there is a PDC at 192.168.254.254 and are trying to contact it (which of course they cannot). For instance (this is a NetApp that is a domain member):

grunthos> cifs testdc
...

I'd expect it to find only aaa.bbb.ccc.241 - Any idea what am I missing here?

The PDC is also the WINS server, in case that matters.

Thanks,

Hi Roy

My best guess is that this is subnet browsing issue. Since enhanced browsing is enabled by default try to disable it in [Global] section

enhanced browsing = no
