similar to: smb setting for lmhosts client access

Dear all, I'm setting up a wins server configuration with Samba 3.0.24 ### interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8, 192.168.1.0/24 bind interfaces only = Yes name resolve order = lmhosts host bcast preferred master = Yes dns proxy = No wins support = Yes ### Before setting dhcp to instruct the clients to use this wins server, I'm trying to make certain it's working correctly. The command:

Hello Someone who has working lmhosts please tell me where it is (i.e., the path). I RTFMd man lmhosts and: 1) man hosts tells: SYNOPSIS: /etc/hosts. 2) man lmhosts doesn't tell anything about the path. 3) man lmhosts: "It is very similar to the /etc/hosts file format" - does it mean that the similarity is also in the placement of the file? 4) All config files are in

First, thanks for all the replies to my plaintive cries for help; some of this gets a little frustrating when you're trying to do it from the seat of one's pants (as it were). Also, a big thanks to the samba team members (one of these days, I'll have to look into that pizza voucher thing...). I looked through all the docs, mail archives, etc, and the only references to the

I have nmbd set up to act as a WINS server. As far as I can tell from the docs, WINS should reply for queries that it can then lookup in the supplied lmhosts file. Unfortunately, it does not appear to do this; it only knows its own name when queried (and the domain name entry) but none of the entries that are in the lmhosts file. the debug output of nmbd doesn't reveal much (and doesnt even

Has anyone had any luck with lmhosts. I'm trying to avoid using the -I 192.168.1.10 to identify a Win95 machine when using smbmount Is there an option I need to set in Samba to tell it to use /etc/lmhosts?

Hi, I'm trying to connect to a share on a linux box from a win98 (or win2k) machine through an SSH tunnel. The documentation found on the subject says to setup an entry in LMHOSTS file in the form of: 127.0.0.1 sambaserver #pre checking the status of the cache with NBTSTAT -c after doing a NBTSTAT -R does not show the entry for "sambaserver" If I put any other

Hi All, Probably simple question: I want to make a share for sharing an lmhosts file which gets included by the clients. This share has to be very public and accept nullsessions (whatever that me be (no username and password?)). I want this because I need to generate aliases on the fly for for our fileserver for some clients (terminalservers specifically). So I thought that having an server

this may be a remedial question, but uh, what's /etc/lmhosts supposed to be? smbclient always complains that it doesn't exist... should it? thanks... -E

I'm trying to get hosts on other side of non-broadcasting router to login to a samba server. I have successfully mapped a specified driver from such a host to samba, but when trying to login to a domain am unsuccessful.

There is no way to specify allowed hosts in smb.conf as hostname alias (from /etc/hosts file) or as netbios names (from lmhosts file). Is this normal behavior? If so, what is lmhosts file used for? Using configuration shown below, the only way to specify allowed hosts in smb.conf is with hosts FQDN. Thanks in advance for any help. Example: hosts allow = eclipse.lan # this is OK hosts allow =
