This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------C59C5D5B0643FFC3DEDEAA60 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit About a year ago, I set up samba to run on a Linux box here at work. Everything was working fine, i.e. others could see the shares on the server and get data from them. My /var/log/samba directory had approx. 1000 entries in it. Over the last day approx. 5 machines can see the box. The windows NT 4.0 boxes can get their information from the WINS server correctly and can see the other machines on the local net, but not the samba box. The current theory is that the name is not getting registered with the WINS server.
