How to test WINS functionality and swat question
Hi, The two servers I will mention are HP-UX 10.20 with samba-2.0.3 I've setup a dual-homed host and face two challenges. All of a sudden swat has stopped serving web pages. I did no radical changes to the smb.conf file (via swat) and now I get a "web server found, waiting for answer" message and it just stays there, I can find no relevant error message in the log files. This isn't all that criticall since I can still edit by hand, but it does bother me, and I'm afraid it means I have bigger problems. Any pointers? Secondly, I'm not exactly sure my host, which has "wins support = yes" option, with no other WINS server in the network, is working. How can I test this? For example, I have another samba server which has "wins server = 130.6.96.2" (the first server) but it never shows up in browse lists. The wins.dat file and browse.dat file in the dual-homed host make no mention of the second host, but I'm not sure that actually means anything. No log file makes mention of any error. Heres my globals section: workgroup = INFORMATICA interfaces = 130.6.96.2/24 130.6.98.2/24 max log size = 500 log level = 2 name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast socket options printcap name = lpstat os level = 62 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes wins support = Yes remote announce = 130.6.98.255 remote browse sync = 130.6.98.255 guest account = red Thanks for any help you gurus might provide.
