I've also trawled around the mailing lists and seen the common replies about Wins client and server battling - here is my testparm output to allay those ideas.

I upgraded 6 PC's to 10/100 and also changed an IP address or 2 in the process. On the ones that had an IP address change, I reflected the new IP in the DNS Zone file.
Since the upgrade I've been getting the following on the nightly output. I've tried enabling WINS and DNS Proxy in smb.conf. I...
Your rc.conf:-
ifconfig_xl0="inet 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_xl1="inet 192.168.1.20 netmask 255.255.255.0"
Both Network cards are on the same network 192.168.1.0, the whole point of a router is that they are on different networks or am i missing a point...
I have 2 XP PC's and 2 older ME PC's.
The ME PC's login to a Samba domain and run a login script.
The XP machines have not been added to the domain because as yet it screws the roaming profiles up. As such the XP machines are running logon.bat locally and relying on passthrough authentication...
Fixed it - most stupid fault i've ever seen.
We have had instances in the past where the onboard 10/100 SIS card will only talk on a 10/100M Network. If you plugged them onto a 10mb network they wouldn't talk, presumably a limitation of the BSD driver (they work in Windows).
Now that it worked...
I've set them up of the latest Samba in Ports and I always get a problem on the second XP box trying to load the Profile. Am I jumping the gun a bit? I've noticed a lack of mention if them in the Readme's.
Don't quote me on this but from memory, if you add the Unix user to the wheel group (assuming all Unix flavours have wheel?) and then add the Domain User or Domain Admin's to the local admins group.
I've just installed a FreeBSD 4.6 Samba box at a site running local DNS. They have an ADSL connection supplied by us running through an Alcatel Speedtouch Pro. Before BSD arrived today, all the Win95/98 PC's were DHCP clients to the ADSL modem. They all had net access working fine...
