I am having the same problem using Samba 3.0.7 w/ FC2. This only started happening recently, and is happening on 3 servers. I hadn't seen it happen on 3.0.4. Nothing else has changed.

I am having an issue on my print server regarding how the printer ends up registering itself on the Windows clients. We have a machine named "bob", "bob" has an alias both in DNS and in the netbios name in Samba of "printserver", "bob" has an IP address of 192.168.1.1. In a seemingly random fashion sometimes when I add a printer on a new client machine by specifying the printer with \\printserver\Reception to specify the "Reception" printer, it shows up as "Reception on herm" or "Reception on 192.168.1.1" or "Reception on printserver" (this would be the desired result, which does sometimes occur). Does anyone have an idea why this might be occurring? Is it a common problem with Samba or do we have something setup wrong somewhere?
