Re: [Samba] Hosts Disappearing

I find having all clients point to a  WINS server (whether Samba is
the WINS client or WINS server) avoids most browsing issues.

 Past experience with this is that it's a browser service issue.

 Programs like browmon and browstat can be downloaded to figure out which
 machine thinks it's the master browser on the network.

 An easy fix is to disable/stop the computer browser service on all
 machines except the server.
