Question Samba error message on connection between server and windows XP


Dear all,
I have a Samba server conecting to a windows XP machine that is in workgroup named CLOUDLESS. I have a share folder that resides in the server that can be accessed no problem by the XP client, but I got the following error message from the syslog:
Code:
Apr  5 18:15:44 firefly nmbd[5656]:   find_domain_master_name_query_fail:
Apr  5 18:15:44 firefly nmbd[5656]:   Unable to find the Domain Master Browser name CLOUDLESS<1b> for the workgroup CLOUDLESS.
Apr  5 18:15:44 firefly nmbd[5656]:   Unable to sync browse lists in this workgroup.
Apr  5 18:23:15 firefly smbd[6673]: [2010/04/05 18:23:15,  0] lib/util_sock.c:get_peer_name(1870)
Apr  5 18:23:15 firefly smbd[6673]:   Matchname failed on 107.subnet125-161-24.snowdrop.ir.sg ::ffff:125.161.24.107
Apr  5 18:23:15 firefly smbd[6673]: [2010/04/05 18:23:15,  0] lib/access.c:check_access(410)
Apr  5 18:23:15 firefly smbd[6673]:   Denied connection from UNKNOWN (::ffff:125.161.24.107)
Suppose snowdrop.ir.sg is my IP provider, what could the error mean?
What are these errors: "find_domain_master_name_query_fail", "Unable to sync browse lists in this workgroup", "Denied connection from UNKNOWN"?

Regards,
ethereal1m

Are you sure the workgroup name in the smb.conf file is also CLOUDLESS?
