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.

Nevermind. I found them.
I also performed the below suggestions and the phantom IP address is still
there, fighting for control of the network.

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.

In the /var/samba/locks directory you may have browse.dat file or
wins.* (if this is a WINS server) files that have
incorrect info.
You should be able to name/backup these files and restart nmbd.
Is the phantom master browser a samba server or a Windows machine?
the Samba DC normally should win browser elections but it is not
always the case.

There is no indication of the phantom master browser

Subject: [Samba] Phantom Domain Master Browser
There's a phantom domain master browser showing up in my Samba
nmbd.log file.
I keep thinking that maybe it is left over in one of the
files that I
transferred over from the old server to the new server and
it isn't
clearing itself out. Is there a way to clear that and is
it possible
to have a phantom browser fighting over the Domain from a
copied over
file?
I transferred all of the Samba files found in /etc/samba
to the new
server.
This was also an upgrade from Samba 3.2.7 to Samba 3.6.3
I have noticed some additional files in the /var/log/Samba
directory
as well as some additional files in the /etc/samba
directory on the
new server.
