As far as I can tell it is sending netbios names wrong: REDE \\THESERVER Servidor \\THESERVER\IPC$ IPC Service (Samba Server 3.0.28) \\THESERVER\Cadeiras \\THESERVER\Partilhados \\THESERVER\Filmes \\THESERVER\DVDRW \\THESERVER\MP3 \\STOUT Samba Server 3.0.28 \\STOUT\IPC$ IPC Service (Samba Server 3.0.28) \\STOUT\Cadeiras \\STOUT\Partilhados \\STOUT\Filmes \\STOUT\DVDRW \\STOUT\MP3 stout files # smbtree WARNING: The "printer admin" option is deprecated Password: REDE \\STOUT Samba Server 3.0.28 \\STOUT\IPC$ IPC Service (Samba Server 3.0.28) \\STOUT\Cadeiras \\STOUT\Partilhados \\STOUT\Filmes \\STOUT\DVDRW \\STOUT\MP3 \\SERVER Servidor \\SERVER\IPC$ IPC Service (Servidor) \\SERVER\Downloads It started working when I forced the option "netbios = server" in the /etc/samba/smb.conf, so it would use a name different than the hostname. This on the local master. Forcing "netbios = name", with name the same as the hostname also breaks it. The server has a correct smbtree output. This causes trouble browsing with hostnames only, with IPs it works fine. It causes also a major issue with fusesmb, which I use in a media center, in a way that it lists the shares right, but when trying to enter the said share, it returns "file unavailable". Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.don't use netbios = name on the local master 2.shares will be duplicated on listing, in the clients, not on the server 3. Actual Results: Can't use stuff like fusesmb or accessing(and listing) shares through the hostname Expected Results: Shares should be able to be listed and accessed through the hostname and not another alias.
Just to note (I'm not a dev) that I cannot reproduce that behavior.
The server also acts as a gateway to the internet, having then dnsmasq and iptables running.
you havent posted `emerge --info` i see ...

Tiago, as far as I can see this bug is not distribution-specific. Have you posted this bug upstream, e.g. to https://bugzilla.samba.org/ ?
Is this still an issue with current versions? If not, has anyone created a reproducable testcase and reported it upstream? Reopen if it is still a problem.
