...root of this problem and I say facts: Have samba wins-server and many win-clients and two samba-clients. At wins-server in browse.dat exists all clients, in wins.dat once in 2-3 days records about samba-clients is not available. In smb.conf at samba-clients exist this param:"remote announce = IP_of_wins_server" In log of wins-server: "process_host_announce .... ttl=300 .... ", but in table "wins_write_database" TTL for this client not changed. Now, I restart samba-client every 2-3 day. But it's not right way. What I do not right ? Or this is bug ?

...provides a tool called "nblookup" for doing NetBios name lookups by querying a name server. You can optionally specify the WINS server if the client is not configured to use one, or it you want to query a different WINS server. e.g nblookup SOMEMACHINE nblookup -s IP_OF_WINS_SERVER SOMEMACHINE http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830578 If the XP laptop is connected directly to the corporate LAN, nblookup works fine. If the XP laptop is connected via VPN, then nblookup fails, even if I specify the wins server IP address. I tried this with both the current WINS server as...

I realize this is not a strictly a samba "problem" but I am hoping that there is a samba solution. I have a samba 3.6.20 PDC. I am running WINS. We use an IPSec client VPN to allow users with Windows 7 laptops to connect to the office remotely. The windows 7 laptops are joined to the Samba domain. Password expiration policies are enforced. When you login to

Hi, I have the following: Win2k server with AD for domain login validation. There is a secondary Win2k server as well. RH5.2 with samba samba-2.0.4b-19990519 RH6.2 with samba samba-2.2.2-20011014 I wish to setup one or two very basic shares on each of the RH boxes. share level security will be fine. Win2k seems to work ok. XP doesn't. It cannot find the servers with search. What are

...t; List-Archive: http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/ My guess is you just need to set up one of those samba servers as a WINS server (``wins support = yes'' in your smb.conf), and point all of your SMB clients (windows and the other samba server) to it. (For samba, set ``wins server = IP_of_WINS_server'' in smb.conf; windows machines can be pointed to the WINS server via DHCP or manually in the network device config.) Normally windows boxes use broadcasts to figure out which machine (ie, which IP) has a given NetBIOS name. These broadcasts don't work across subnets. A WINS server is...
