Hi all, I have been having the weirdest network browsing problems on my network the past week. Come to find out the wins.dat file got corrupted. Removing that file fixed everything. Because our systems typically have uptimes measured in months rather than days, and it is difficult for me to restart Samba except as a scheduled task (which I'm afraid to do because there are users who come in earlier than I do in the AM and users that work later than me in the PM, and I don't want them having to call me at home :D ), I need to know what the best practice is for the .dat and .tdb files. Is it normal for them to become corrupt over time? Is there some best practice for how often to remove them and let them re-populate? Anything else I should know for a Samba instance that typically runs for months on end without interruption?
