samba strange: find_domain_master_query_fail?


Hey everyone. not really an important problem, i am merely wondering.
My samba config is working great and all. but i get these messages every hour or so in my /var/log/messages
does anyone recognize this text and/or know how to fix it? thanks in advance

apr 4 20:13:46 stina nmbd[18210]: find_domain_master_name_query_fail:
apr 4 20:13:46 stina nmbd[18210]: unable to find the domain master browser name alla<1b> for the workgroup alla.
apr 4 20:13:46 stina nmbd[18210]/

(note: stina is the name of the computer and ALLA is the name of the workgroup)

this is a copy of my smb.conf if it might help:

[global]
netbios name = stina
server string = server
workgroup = ALLA
os level = 2
log file = /etc/samba/log/samba.log
time server = yes

printing = BSD
printcap name = /etc/printcap
print command = /usr/bin/lpr -P%p -r %s
min print space = 2000
socket options = SO_KEEPALIVE IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY
wins support = no
character set = ISO8859-15
client code page = 850
veto files = /*.eml/*.nws/riched20.dll/*.{*}/
allow hosts = 192.168.0.
obey pam restrictions = no
security = user
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
browseable = no
writeable = yes
create mask = 0755
directory mask = 0755

[share]
comment = allt
guest ok = no
writable = yes
path = /share
#security mask = 0755
create mask = 0755
directory mask = 0777
force user = root
force group = share

if u dont have a NT server (domain controller) in your network add these lines. put higher numbers for "os level", like 90..

local master = yes
domain master = yes
