...PDC's gateway IP and was wondering if there was a way to get ONLY the info I need from DHCP to the Win machine. To attempt to clarify, when the PDC is up, it will assign its gateway IP to the BDC (since it is a client normally), if the server should go down, I'd just renew the BDC's IP(winipcfg), activate the DHCP server on the BDC and use it until the problem is PDC is back up(renewing the clients as well, of course). If this is not possible with my setup, any suggestions will be investigated, short of having to manually change the BDC. Kev

...ame workgroup didn't change it either.. Its odd that i cant telnet to the machine using its ip or its host name from one of the win95 clients, but the machines are getting there dynamicip from it. the DNS is set for our DNS server that knows about the linux machine also.. also by doing a "winipcfg" i see that the win95 clients sees the DHCP server as our "external" ip not the "internal" one. and i suspect that to be the cause ( related to the ip_alaising for dhcp). Anyone have some clues or pointers as to where to look further? My smb.conf file is at http://www.suc...

I am still having some troubles getting samba to work. I have installed samba and it seems to be fine from the server point of view. However, my client can see the server in the Network neighborhood, but I get network path not found. The server and the client are on different sub-nets. Both the client and the server are using DNS to resolve names. Both are resolvable. They use FTP between

I'm sure the reason for the asymmetric path will now be obvious! Both the interfaces on carrot were DHCP configured and, amusingly, I could use WINIPCFG to release/renew the morpork interface on carrot and the routing would go the ankh interface way! ;) Anyway... what I was inquiring about was: does nmbd do any address sorting like named to avoid this happening? I'm a bit confused about how I managed to get a connection across subnets in...

..., configured it (see config file below) and started it. Then I reconfigured the laptop to automatically get it's address, rebooted it, logged on, and then inserted the network card. I was very happy when the laptop was able to get it's IP address properly (I checked with ipconfig.exe, and winipcfg.exe). However, I then got a message on the laptop which said that the file server was unable to see the laptop???? I checked the Samba logs, and there was NO indication of any activity. So, I restored the laptop back to a static IP, and rebooted, and it worked properly. Samba is configured to a...

Hi, I have a Samba 2.2.1a PDC-based network, everything works great. Browsing works fine too, but ONLY the Samba servers show up. I have a PDC w/ WINS and 2 Samba file servers I can do a search for other computers, but they just aren't being listed from win2k and 98 machine's network neighborhood. I put browse list = yes, but no dice. Any ideas? thanks, Brad Christian

I have installed samba on two different linux boxes that have identical os one system has only win95 and wfwg. All works perfect second system has only NT4.0 I can attach and use the 'public' guest ok= yes shares just fine the 'homes' shares and printers are visible. when I try to attach to a homes share of userxx by machine name userxx I get the same old 'access

...tup like this: Dialup Networking->(connection name)->Properties->Server types shows that the the logon to network box is checked. For the protocols, only TCP/IP is checked. The TCP/IP settings are to get the IP address and name server addresses from the server. A look at ipconfig/All or winipcfg reports that the IP address is 192.168.69.81, netmask is 255.255.255.0, DNS server is 192.168.69.1 (which is correct -- DNS server is on my firewall), and the WINS server is 192.168.69.2. I have tcpdumped the ppp interface on the server. I see that when the client connects, the 1st thing it does...

I having difficulty getting browsing to fully work across two subnets. The subnets (having private addresses - 192.168.x.0) are connected by Linux boxes (RH6.1, one for each subnet) functioning as firewall, IP masquerade and router. On one subnet (call this one LEFT), there is an NT4.0 server as the PDC (also running WINS and DHCP) along with 50 or so clients and other servers (NT, Win9x) in

We have a network of about 24 remote site all connecting to our home office across a mixture of private frame relay and VPN across the internet. In order to simplify our life, and at the same time, reduce the amount of non critical and chatty traffic transversing the WAN links during business hours, we are putting servers at each remote to do DHCP, DNS, WINS, and file and print sharing. From the

Greetings Earthlings: I finally convinced the LAN guy to remove NetBlooie from our windoze clients. I also made the samba box the local and master browser (we have no NT boxes at the moment). Local browsing seems to have gotten faster (at least Mr. Robinson's Network Neighborhood resolves faster). However, our LAN is isolated (windoze clients dial out to get to the internet, retrieve

Greetings, I have a File Server, Running Samba on RedHat 7.0 Everything Works fines, It have 64 megs of ram, and around 15 peoples using it. But sometimes, in the morning when people try to access it's Share it gives the error msgs: NETWORK IS BUSY. All my user get logon using a Windows NT PDC. To enable my user to connect to Samba, I "play" with the computer for a While..

Hi, at our local computer pool in the school we've a samba3 server and about 40 winnt-4.0 workstations. the main problem is, that the workstations have to wait for about 3 minutes after they started, before a user can login. in other words: the computer starts and if you try to login then immediatly you'll get "domain manos not available" or something like this. but if you wait

Eric, I am busy trying to grasp the browse list concept. We have subnets and dial-in accounts. From what I have read you may have to get your Linux box act as aWINS server and have to dial-up user use the wins server to resolve names on the brows list. The browse list is updated every 12-15 minutes ao your dial-up account might not show upat first. This has caused me some trouble at first as I

First off, I'd like to give all the people involved with the development of Samba a big thanks. I'd have to say that Samba is probably the single most important piece of software that we run in our research lab. I'd also like to say that I have had so few problems that I probably haven't written about one in 3 years. With that being said, I'm having problems with my Samba
