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.
