similar to: browsing network neighborhood

I couldn't find anything like this in the archives, although it must be there. We are running Samba 2.0.7 on RedHat Linux 6.0 using Windows 95 clients. Our Network Neighborhood is filled with workgroups that no longer exist. In some cases, someone connected with a laptop that was in a certain workgroup and it was added to the list of our workgroups. Even that that person has been gone for

Hi, I'm currently using the nbfw (netbios forwarder - http://nbfw.sourceforge.net/) patch with samba on a linux masquerading firewall/router. It works pretty well. I was wondering if there was plan to include this patch in samba (or TNG) I was also wondering if there was any way to use this as a mean to do cross-subnet browsing efficient. The paradox is that browsing works better between a

At the moment if Samba4 acts as DC (domain controller) it doesn' t support neighborhood browsing, that is computers in a local group are not visible in network neighborhood. I have not been remaining think about working of the functionality. And have found this one: http://forge.univention.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=30132 I am not a programmer but may be it will be useful for easier and

I'm trying to set up cross-subnet browsing using Samba on a Linux box and a Sparc UltraEnterprise with Win95 and NT Workstation clients. I'm using the Sparc as the domain master and also as the WINS server on the 108 subnet. The Linux box is the local master on the 46 subnet. Both are running Samba 1.9.17alpha4. I can see the conversation between the two samba servers and the browse

Hello! I am puzzled here - I have two Samba systems ; one on each different network that I am working with. One of them allows local Windoze 95 machines to view the server via network Neighborhood; the other does not. In both networks, I am able to mount shares. I have checked options; as many as I could think of, but no luck. I am stumped. Both of them are configured as NT domain

Hi to all, I've this problem: When I start browsing in Explorer from my NT 4.0 SP3 Server, the SAMBA Server don't respond to the broadcasting.

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

Questions are about <1b> NetBios type record name for workgroup (for workgroup, not for node) . There is local subnet with Samba4 as DC (either Win NT or Win NT+) for mdom.net domain, and as following, there is mdom workgroup in neighborhood. But there are some other domain and/or non-domain workgroups in the subnet which Samba4 does not belong to. Is <1b> had to be registered by

I am using Samba-PDC-LDAP with samba-3.0.20b-1. On my file servers I am using samba-3.0.10-1.4. I'm not sure exactly what is happening but every couple of weeks the file servers disappear form network neighborhood. I checked browstat on my Windows system and it points to my PDC as the master browser and I checked the wins.dat file on my PDC and the systems were there. I did not check

we have samba [mostly] working in a VPN application connecting two Mandrake subnets using SSH. if all machines define the same workgroup name, and we define a single domain master browser, (with the other subnet defined as a preferred, local, master browser,) and a single WINS server, after a little while, all shares are visible to all WIN9x machines. this samba stuff is fantastic! 2 questions:

(Samba version 1.9.18p4) I want to set up my environment thusly: - 2 workgroups, each composed of multiple subnets. - Each workgroup has a DMB and a WINS server (Samba only - no NT) - The two workgroups should collate browse lists so that clients on either workgroup can browse and connect to hosts on the opposite workgroup. I've read the documentation in BROWSING.txt and it does not appear

Does anyone know how I can fix the following problem? Server running Solaris 5.7 with samba 2.0.7, as a client, installed does not show up in the Network Neighborhood's workgroup. Server's IP address was changed, samba 2.0.7 was added and now it does not work. You can get to the server by typing it in by hand \\<server-name> or <server-ip> but it does not appear in the

I just successfully upgraded a server from v 2.2.8 to v3.0.7. When I execute smbstatus or swat it correctly shows v 3.0.7. When I browse thru network neighborhood it still shows v 2.2.8. I stopped samba, and removed /usr/local/samba/var/locks/browse.dat & wins.dat. Then restarted samba. It still reports v2.2.8 thru network neighborhood. In viewing browse.dat it shows 2.2.8. Where is this

We're running Samba 2.2.2 over an NT network. Our clients use Win95 (for the time being) and I wondered how we config Samba so they can map the shares using network neighborhood. We can map fine through MS-DOS, but when I try, for example, to map E drive to \\nfssrv\ads share via network neighborhood (where we ARE able to see the shares), it says E: is already connected to . Do you want

Hi All, I turned my Debian box into a file server on my home network. What happened is now no boxen except the localhost shows up in Network Neighborhood on the Windows boxen. All shares work fine and if I search for the Linux server, I find it. Has anyone ever run into this and resolved it? Three days of Googling have left me with the same problem and a headache. Thanks.

Hello, sorry for this posting, I know you must have answered this hundreds of times, but I cannot get my samba servers to appear on the network neighborhood on the W95 client machines. Can anyone tell what?s missing from my smb.conf files? The problem should be the same on all of the samba servers, how do I have to configure samba to show up in the network neighborhood? Thanx in advance. --

Hi, Is it possible to browse the network neighborhood without sending netbios packets to the broadcast address? I would imagine it could be done by manually specifying a central wins server on the lan -- is that the case? Specifically my concern is that dialup users (without an access filter to restrict broadcasts) will flood the network with broadcasts, affecting latency sensitive applications.

Hi, I have a samba 2.2.1a (cvs-06.08.2001) running as PDC for my domain, and it is doing fine. But in the broadcast domain there are severeal other workgroups (no domains) with their own Domain Master Browsers. Additionaly there are always a lot of unconfigured computers not under my control, which build their own workgroups (e.g. mdkhome, workgroup...). My problem is now, how do I prevent all
