hosts allow/deny not working correctly in 2.0.3 or 2.0.4b
I am having difficult getting the hosts allow/deny to work with IP ranges or netmasks. Ideally I would prefer to use the IP/Netmask method, e.g. 111.22.33.0/255.255.255.0, because we have a flat ATM network with multiple class C's (netmask is really 255.255.252.0). This, however, doesn't work!! I can't do 111.22.33. either... I can't even do specific IP's, e.g. 111.22.33.44 but I CAN do hostnames (e.g. myhost). What could I possibly have wrong?? Everything else seems to work, and we've been using it in a production environment for about two months. Details are: Solaris 7.0 (soon to be bumped back down to 2.6 due to file read-induced CPU panics) Samba 2.0.3 (compiled with gcc, if it matters) Domain security (Samba joined the domain, but I have to HUP the nmbd process to keep the entry alive in WINS -- what's up with that??!!) testparm shows everything's okay until I add IP/netmask entries and then it's _always_ denied!! Please help!! Thanks, Tyson -- M.
