Hi

I have recently set-up Samba 3.0.10-0.1 on Suse 9.1. All is working fine, I can create users, groups, see my network shares, grant access to them etc. Recently I have tried to set-up the Samba server as a PDC, I have configured the smb.conf and from looking through different tutorials and notes it seems to be correct. However when I try and add a windows client to the domain I get an error in regards to the client being unable to look up the domain name on the wins server. As far as I can make out I have configured the samba server correctly to be a wins server by adding the wins support = Yes to the smb.conf file however for some reason I am still unable to verify the domain name via the client. I do not think this is a client issue as it is able to join a different Samba domain on a different network. Below is my smb.conf file I was hoping someone could help.

/[global]
       workgroup = TEST
passwd chat = *New*Password* %n\n*Re-enter*new*password* %n\n *Password*changed*
       username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
       syslog = 0
       name resolve order = wins bcast hosts
       add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u'
       delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r '%u'
       add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd '%g'
       delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel '%g'
       add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G '%g' '%u'
add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d /var/lib/nobody '%u'
       logon script = scripts\login.bat
       logon path =
       logon drive = X:
       domain logons = Yes
       preferred master = Yes
       wins support = Yes
[homes]
       comment = Home Directories
       valid users = %S
       read only = No
       browseable = No
[netlogon]
       comment = Network Logon Service
       path = /data/%U
       valid users = %S
       read only = No
[accounts]
       comment = Accounting Files
       path = /data/accounts
       valid users = %G
       read only = No
[finsvcs]
       comment = Financial Service Files
       path = /data/finsvcs
       valid users = %G
       read only = No/

Can anybody see what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,
Gareth Cummings
