Whenever there is more than 1 Samba server running in the same
netbios space, they INCESSANTLY put out the same worthless
message every 5 minutes exactly, filling up disc space or
disrupting whatever's happening on the console.
The message always has the same form:
"query name response: Multiple [n] reponses received on subnet
[this ip address] for name [netbios group name]. This response
was from [other ip address]."
This has been a problem for years, but so far nobody seems to
know how to stop the damned things. Log levels appear to have no
effect on them.
The server needs to have a switch to turn off such messages!
Preferably as a patch, distributed s o o n.
I'm just before lodging a bug report, because anyone trying to
construe that message as a feature would be likely to spend time
in hospital by reason of having herniated their imagination.
