Hi all, Is there any way to exchange data with wins server (nt)? i have 4 separate subnet over wan (with dedicated connection), my subnet was use samba act as wins server and other are (still) using nt wins. i know samba wins can not participate in replication, but can we tell samba to query other wins server to resolve query? (ie. something like ldap referral or dns forward). tks.
research these parameters: remote announce remote browse sync HTH -C On Sat, 2003-01-11 at 04:31, Beast wrote:> Hi all, > > Is there any way to exchange data with wins server (nt)? > i have 4 separate subnet over wan (with dedicated connection), my subnet > was use samba act as wins server and other are (still) using nt wins. i > know samba wins can not participate in replication, but can we tell samba > to query other wins server to resolve query?

With nt-wins to nt-wins replication, on win client, i can ping using netbios name (even if machine is on separate subnet and not listed in dns). ps: This list "style" keep breaking my mail filter and hard to reply. admin, pls add reply-to header :-)> >HTH >-C >
Mr. Beast, Do you need this functionality from everywhere, or just from your admin workstation? You might try adding the wins server IP of the remote subnet to your advanced TCPIP options on the NIC in windows to see if that helps. Let me know how it goes. -C -----Original Message----- From: Beast [mailto:beast@setuid.com] Sent: Monday, January 13, 2003 7:15 AM To: samba Subject: Re: [Samba] Exchange data with NT Wins server At 10:30 AM 1/12/2003 -0500, Christopher Barry wrote:>research these parameters: > remote announce > remote browse syncThanks. but both options seems only provide browsing list to another subnet, not nbname-to-ip.

Agreed. I have not encountered this situation myself. I use dns for this, and make my remotes set the ip of my samba nmbd for wins. Can anyone help this guy!!? -C On Tue, 2003-01-14 at 04:29, Beast wrote:> At 05:02 PM 1/13/2003 -0500, Barry, Christopher wrote: > >Mr. Beast, > >Do you need this functionality from everywhere, or just from your admin > workstation? > > From any clients, which point its wins server to this samba wins server. > > >You might try adding the wins server IP of the remote subnet to your > advanced TCPIP > >options on the NIC in windows to see if that helps. > > That means we should goes to every clients (500+, no dhcp, no dynamic > update of dns) :-) > if we have more than 2 site, where to put the rest of wins server? > > > > >Let me know how it goes. > > idealy, samba should able to resolve any query from client. it should > forward request to other wins server. > tks! > > > > >-C > > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
