Last week week my customer call me for the same problem where I installed an "old" version of samba (like yours) without local dns. After some tests, a simple bind9 + master local zone and reversed one solved the problem. I don't know further technical details, but I presume that 7 _need_ a reply from a dns. If it not find a good one, before gone to timeout and switch to wins resolution, it took *a lot of time* Michele -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
