What would cause the "View Workgroup Computers" to be slow in coming up.
It will take from 10 seconds to 1 minute.
A am using Windows XP hosts with an SCO OpenServer using Samba in a
workgroup, and Samba is the preferred master (os 255) with WINS support. I
have the Browser service turned off on all Windows clients.

Is winbind the first name resolution protocol for the server, or is it
trying to get host names from hosts/DNS/NIS/NIS+/LDAP first? You have to
fail down the chain until you get a positive name resolution, which
could involve recursive lookups and such. Just a gut reaction to
browsing problems. Also, I've had old hosts in my winbind cache that it
tries to find and cannot - but that was under the outside influence of
my own stupidity, I'm not sure that it can happen very well under normal
conditions.
