Greetings Fellow Sambalians, I'm wondering if it's possible to use nmblookup to do reverse lookups (lookup an IP address and get back a NETBIOS name) outside my own network segment. I see that I can effectively do reverse lookups inside my subnet directly, or I can do forward lookups of distant nodes against a WINS server, but I can't seem to find a way to do what I want. I see that "ping -a ip_appress" under Windoze will give me the NETBIOS name for a distant node. Any way to do this with nmblookup, or some other Samba util? I have a Perl CGI that would really like to do reverse NMB lookups.... Thanks muchly, Charlie Apologies if this message contains any HTML.
