[SunHELP] Samba and WINS problems

[sunhelp at sunhelp.org]

Hi all,

I know some folks on this list have experience with Solaris and Windows, so
I thought I'd throw this problem out there.

We have a Solaris 2.7 server with multiple interfaces running Samba 2.0.5.
When the server is rebooted, it seems to update the Primary WINS Server with
all of the IP addresses assigned to the server, causing some of the Windows
clients to time out when mapping shares. Below is the 'ifconfig -a' :

hme0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.17.5.57 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.17.5.255
        ether 8:0:20:c7:ac:9f 
qfe0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.18.30.37 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.18.30.255
        ether 8:0:20:f6:c7:20 
qfe1: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.17.30.57 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.17.30.255
        ether 8:0:20:f6:c7:21 
qfe3: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.18.10.37 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 172.18.10.255
        ether 8:0:20:f6:c7:23

Some of the IP addresses are not routable because they are designed as
private networks which is where are problems arise with users trying to
connect. I'm figuring that there must be a configuration paramter in
smb.conf that is causing this behavior. I've attached a small snippet of the
[global] section of our smb.conf:

[global]
        workgroup = DEV
        server string = Samba 2.0.5 - Dev Server
        encrypt passwords = Yes
        log level = 2
        os level = 0
        local master = No
        wins server = 172.17.2.53

Has anyone heard of such issues or had any experience with this problem? 

Thanks in advance for your help.
