I used the default file, with "security user" and two mount points shared as user. I then tried to change the paramters as "local master" and "domain master" as explained in the mal and examples. I did not ask to samba mailing list simply because I did not yet suggested it came from smb.conf - I am not sure about this. > > I tried to change many parameters to make nmbd LISTEN and answer UDP/137 > > requests without success. > > Repeat after me: UDP IS STATELESS.

I did'nt trace the process, but tcpdump show the packets, pflog confirms that the rule pass in pf.conf lets correctly passing the packets. > It's been years since I've had to deal with samba, so I can't really > help you further...other than to point out that you failed to provide > any information about your system or the samba you're running.

It's 4.6 default + samba 3 default from packages. I did not copy all informations such as content of smb.conf and pf.conf as I did not feel it necessary - for the first, it is close enough from default and for the second it's perfectly patching what is needed for process to work. > > Philip Guenther
