Hi! Two problems: 1) I can access shares by IP but not by name, so I assume that WINS doesn't do its job for some reason, smb.conf: [global] wins support = yes name resolve order = lmhosts wins hosts bcast 2) I don't quite get it how smbclient works. As I mentioned name resolve does't work and hance smbclient -M MACHINE doesn't either but an IP should work: # nmblookup -A 192.168.0.5 Looking up status of 192.168.0.5 NOTEBOOK <00> - M <ACTIVE> HOME <00> - <GROUP> M <ACTIVE> NOTEBOOK <20> - M <ACTIVE> HOME <1e> - <GROUP> M <ACTIVE> MAC Address = 00-13-77-00-15-15 # smbclient -I 192.168.0.5 Usage: [-?] [-?EgV] [-?EgV] [-?EgVNkP] [-?|--help] [--usage] [-R|--name-resolve NAME-RESOLVE-ORDER] [-M|--message HOST] [-I|--ip-address IP] [-E|--stderr] [-L|--list HOST] [-t|--terminal CODE] [-m|--max-protocol LEVEL] [-T|--tar <c| x>IXFqgbNan] [-D|--directory DIR] [-c|--command STRING] [-b|--send-buffer BYTES] [-p|--port PORT] [-g|--grepable] [-d|--debuglevel DEBUGLEVEL] [-s|--configfile CONFIGFILE] [-l|--log-basename LOGFILEBASE] [-V|--version] [-O|--socket-options SOCKETOPTIONS] [-n|--netbiosname NETBIOSNAME] [-W|--workgroup WORKGROUP] [-i|--scope SCOPE] [-U|--user USERNAME] [-N|--no-pass] [-k|--kerberos] [-A|--authentication-file FILE] [-S|--sign ...or whatever I tried with -I, it didn't work...
