I'm trying to set up a 100Base-T network on top of my exisiting 10Base-T
network. The 100Base-T network is between a few hosts, but those hosts
are also on the 10Base-T network. Here's a little diagram:
10Base-T 100Base-T
-------------------------------------------------------
128.173.1.1 DCSERVER
| (NT PDC+WINS Server)
|
128.173.1.2 ----- ORION ----- 192.168.1.1
| (Samba 2.0.7) |
| |
128.173.1.3 ----- PLUTO ----- 192.168.1.2
(Win NT)
Alright, I'd obviously like to have any SMB traffic between Orion and
Pluto done on the 100Base-T network, which there is no WINS on. So, on
Pluto, I put the line:
192.168.1.1 ORION #PRE
in the file \winnt\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts, and on Orion, I put:
192.168.1.5 pluto
in the file /usr/samba/lib/lmhosts
So, all good, right? Oh, here are some relevant lines I have in the
/usr/samba/lib/smb.conf file:
workgroup = AOE
security = DOMAIN
password server = DCSERVER
local master = No
domain master = No
browse list = No
dns proxy = No
wins server = 128.173.1.1
name resolve order = lmhosts host wins
So, when I get on Pluto, and access a share, it comes up fine, but I get
this:
[2000/07/20 15:59:05, 1] smbd/service.c:(550)
pluto (128.173.188.25) connect to service u1 as user administrator
(uid=0, gid=0) (pid 7228)
And when I try to transfer a large file, and run 'netstat -C'(on IRIX,
which just shows you the traffic stats), the Input-packets go up on the
100Base-T network, but the output packets go on the 10Base-T network(so,
Samba is reading from 100, but writing to 10.) Any ideas how to make both
in/out work on the 100?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I have to use LMHOSTS entries on all
the NT/Samba machines on the internal network, because a WINS server on
each network won't work.. Is this true? Otherwise, I wouldn't mind
using
WINS - it's alot less maintenance.
I hope this makes sense, if not, please ask questions.
