I may be wrong, however... Can the other machines access the gateway with out any problem? If that is the case, you will probably find that the gateway has an external DNS server as it's primary server, does it have it self listed as a DNS server? Are you sure that it is a 3 minute 12 second delay? DNS time out's are usually closer to around 30 seconds. On the gateway, check /etc/resolv.conf and check to see the order in the servers. You can also time nslookup, and type server, to see what order that is using (just as a double check). Does that give any additional info? Are there any error messages in either /var/log/messages or in /var/log/samba/<logs>. Try editing the /etc/samba/smb.conf file and upping the debug level, and then restarting samba, as that may provide even more info. Doug On Thu, 2003-11-13 at 22:45, James C.
