nmbd is the NetBIOS name server daemon (part of SAMBA).

It sounds like something made a query for the IP address of a NetBIOS system called 'MOSSEL' and two systems responded. Have you any systems with duplicate names on your network? Annihilannic.
 
No, I have no servers with duplicate names on my network. The ONE ( HP-UX + Solaris + AIX + Tru64 = Unix)
