Hello, two questions: 1) Is it possible to set up several (samba based) WINS servers that exchange their databases (redundancy)? 2) Has anyone a solution for the WINS/WINS-R records and bind? Background: We want to move the dhcp, dns and wins services for an NT4 network with domains towards Linux servers running ISC's bind and dhcp servers (and samba's nmbd as wins server of course :) Thanks J?rg -- J?rg Mayer <jmayer@loplof.de> Signature fault, brain dumped

My personal solution is DHCP+dynamic DNS and nmbd running 'dns proxy = yes'. -- Andrew Bartlett abartlet@pcug.org.au Manager, Authentication Subsystems, Samba Team abartlet@samba.org Student Network Administrator, Hawker College abartlet@hawkerc.net samba.org build.samba.org hawkerc.net
