Duplicate Name on TCP network

What would cause the error listed below on my Windows 2000
Advanced Server? This server is clustered.

Another machine has sent a name release message to this
machine probably because a duplicate name has been
detected on the TCP network. The IP address of the node
that sent the message is in the data. Use nbtstat -n in a
command window to see which name is in the Conflict state.

Thank You,

Dan

If you look at the data section of the error message you can determine the
IP of the host that sent the name release. For example:

0000: 00 00 04 00 01 00 54 00
0008: 00 00 00 00 e0 10 00 c0
0010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
0018: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
0020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
0028: e7 1a 65 16


Offset 28 is the IP address of the computer requesting name release. To
determine the decimal IP address, invert the four hexadecimal numbers and
convert them to decimal numbers separated by periods. Using this method,
the IP address of E7 1A 65 16 becomes 22.101.26.231.
