[Samba] Functionality of Nmbd at Active Directory mode of Samba4 !
P. p. S.: Oh, I have remember. Quite important thing. There are some soft where is not address line where you can put \\server\folder address to access or you can not get access resource via \\server\folder, it only via computer list. For example: Far. By typing \\server - there is error. Only: Alt+F1/F2, network, MS Windows Network, GroupName, CompName. If it is visible - Samba4 with Nmbd, it is here at list and it is accessible, if Samba4 as DC (no Nmbd) , that is no in list and not accessible.

Anyway thanks. P. S.: There is one more functionality question: Samba4 fileserver (acts as fileserver now, with Nmbd also) but with LDAP as backend. But it are messages of other topic.

I prefer it does the job it's supposed to do well which means that the code should be appropriately streamlined. You can still use a different mode of Samba if all you need is to quickly share some files. Even in a very small AD environment, you should implement a separate Samba member for file serving purposes. You might, like me, decide to do this in a virtual instance rather than adding a second machine. This allows you to be compliant with the AD concept and still do all on one machine which is perfectly fine for the home office. What's more, if your office ever starts to grow and you decide a single server doesn't cut it anymore, you can always and easily move the virtual instance to a separate server with very little reconfiguration, and without touching the DC instance.

And you could always use 'cd \\server\share' or 'goto:\\server\share\'. That doesn't make the invisibility of DC in the network neighborhood any less annoying. Not all companies are as "small" as Airbus. Some barely can afford a standalone server, and even that necessity is highly questioned by the administration. -- With best regards, Andrey Repin Saturday, December 5, 2015 19:52:37 Sorry for my terrible english...

> net:\\server > Sometimes, you have to read documentation.Oh, no. It have to do users, who use Far. :) I remembered just first camt to my head. :)) And try to explain it of nubers of users. Especially acconuters... You as Russians can know it. I know some other soft where there is no such ability (access by \\server\folder) But can not remember it at the time.> That's simply not true. > And you could always use 'cd \\server\share' or 'goto:\\server\share\'.You are not right. It is _partially_ true.>> If it is visible - Samba4 with Nmbd, it is here at list ...But this is true. :))>> if Samba4 as DC (no Nmbd) , that is no in listAnd it is true. :))> That doesn't make the invisibility of DC in the network neighborhood anyless annoying.> Not all companies are as "small" as Airbus.

But I didn' t understand, are you "for" or "against" presenting Nmb functionality at Samba DC part code ? So, I offer people to combine ther efforts to make code of Nmb within Saba4 DC together instead of posting messages. :)) P. S.:> Sorry for my terrible english...I know a little bit Russian. We can duscuss privately by Russian.

Now I understand this process needs you to work more than before. Anyway, I can't see there a show stopper...
