RN102: Disable Master Browser? / 5.244.251.140???

[btwixt]

Best / any way to disable Master Browser on RN102?

Also, my netywork is 192.168.1.xxx.

From nmbd.log:

"[2015/12/19 12:43:16.504777, 0] ../source3/nmbd/nmbd_become_lmb.c:397(become_local_master_stage2)
***** Samba name server <redacted> is now a local master browser for workgroup WORKGROUP on subnet 192.168.1.10 *****
[2015/12/19 12:48:25.425455, 0] ../source3/nmbd/nmbd_become_lmb.c:397(become_local_master_stage2)
***** Samba name server <redacted> is now a local master browser for workgroup WORKGROUP on subnet 5.244.251.140 *****"

The entry for 192.168.1.10 is expected.

The 5.244.251.140 is not.

I cannot find anything I have configured on any device on my LAN that is anything other than 192.168.1.xxx.

I can live without an answer to the 5.244.251.140 mystery because it doesn't seem to hurt anything,

but I really need to disable master browser on my RN102.

5.x.x.x is used by readycloud.

You can turn off the master browser in the RN102, but it requires ssh.

You need to create a file called /etc/frontview/samba/smb.conf.overrides with the line "local master = no"

To do this from the linux command line, you can type

echo "local master = no" > /etc/frontview/samba/smb.conf.overrides

Then restart the NAS.
