Re: [Samba] Phantom Domain Master Browser
There is no wins.dat or browse.dat anywhere on my server. I am surprised to find this to be the case. I do not have a machine on my network with the IP Address in question.

Re: [Samba] Phantom Domain Master Browser
Robert, Assuming one of the files you found was wins.dat, is there an entry for the offending IP with a corresponding hostname? Knowing the source should surely help with troubleshooting.

Re: [Samba] Phantom Domain Master Browser
Two things: 1. There is no active hosts on my network using that IP Address. 2. There are entries for the Phantom Domain Master Browser, they are pointing to the following: [Domain Name]#1c {string of #'s} -Phantom Server IP Address- *Current Samba Server IP Address* [Domain Name]#1b {string of #'s} -Phantom Server IP Address- *Current Samba Server IP Address* There are no single entries with the phantom IP Address. I have also run an nmap scan of the entire network, there is nothing listed as using the Phantom IP Address, we do not use Wireless and there is nothing plugged into any of the network jacks that I am unaware of, every port is accounted for. -- Regards, Robert Adkins -Original Message- From: Dale Schroeder [mailto:d...@briannassaladdressing.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 29, 2012 1:33 PM To: Robert Adkins II Cc: Samba Subject: Re: [Samba] Phantom Domain Master Browser Robert, Assuming one of the files you found was wins.dat, is there an entry for the offending IP with a corresponding hostname?
