During converting a client from one machine to another, I need to run Samba on both versions. The snag is, for various reasons I need to keep the same hostname on both machines (they refer to each other by different names. and do not use DNS). If it helps, it's Solaris 2.5.1 & 2.6, and the Samba is 1.9.17p4. How can I make them both visible, uniquely, whilst retaining the same host name i.e. is there a way to override the host name? If it also helps, the clients are NT (NT4, I think), and my only knowledge of NT (and indeed SMB) is the spelling thereof (I'm a Unix bigot)... In other words, I want to advertise the same workgroup, say "X", appearing to come from machines "Y" and "Z", whilst being able to pick between them. -- Dave Horsfall VK2KFU dave@geac.com.au Ph: +61 2 9978-7493 Fx: +61 2 9978-7422 Geac Computers P/L (FGH Division) 2/57 Christie St, St Leonards 2065, Australia
