Christmas Gift

Today i got christmas gift from myself. From a long time my samba setup suffering from problem of 'network unavailable messges' . Today i got reason of that problem. This error come when my virtual ip conflict with active virtual ip with other server. When our abpdel2 server goes down due to script, ip 10.11.0.107 assigned to abpdel1. After activating abpdel2 if we forget to unactive assigned virtual ip 10.11.0.107 from abpdel1 then that message come.
