mm.. no response, so I'll reply to myself :-)
I think this error seemed to be caused by my entry of a server name into the
WINS Server field, even though WINS support was turned off. Any idea why?
Deleting the name seemed to stop the warning/error cropping up.
The wins server = parameter requires the IP Address of your WINS server.
Make sure that it is not the IP address of the Samba server if it is your
WINS server (ie: wins support = yes in smb.conf).

Hi there,
I just got a new machine with Redhat Enterprise Workstation and samba
3.0.0-14 pre-installed. I am trying to connect it to my existing network
which has a redhat v8 samba v2 PDC controlling 16 or so win2k and winxp
machines.
In the nmbd log I get this error 3 times every 5 seconds or so:
nmbd/nmbd_packets.c:process_nmb_request(1448)
process_nmb_request: Multihomed registration request must be directed at
a
WINS server.
What does this mean? Multihomed? The network is as simple as it gets,
there is one PDC (and WINS server), and 16 or so clients, and everybody is
on the same domain.
As far as I can see this error doesn't cause anything to fail (I can
access
shares on the new machine fine) but I felt it best to check in case it
comes
back to bite me later on.
Regards
