Hello ! I have a problem of syncing browse lists between DMB and LMB. The topology of ours network is as follows: Linux Network comma(Linux, DMB, WINS) vol(Linux) door(Linux, LMB) | | | | | | | | | --------------(195.226.226.16/28)------ | | | | | | | --(local net

Is it possible to browse multiple workgroups on two or more subnets? I have set up samba on either end of a VPN and can browse successfully from either end, but only in the workgroup that samba is configured for. Can Samba be a member of more than one workgroup at the same time? Looking in browse.dat I can see all the machines in samba's workgroup and also the other workgroups, but not the

Hi How do I get the following browse-setup to work? --------- | A | |Linux | --------- WG1 192.168.10.0 | | WG2 192.168.10.0 ---------------------- ----------------- | | | -------- -------- -------- | B | | C | | D | |Win98 | |WinNT | |Win98 |

The samba configuration on the local LAN works great but, I am trying to set up samba to permit browsing of two workgroups on different subnets and getting very close but not quite the results I want. Remote shares can be mapped to a local drive using "net use * \\remotehost\remoteshare" but in windows explorer the remote workgroup is not browsable : there is a "computer could not

If I have a client that wants to enumerate and access shares on a subnet, and that client knows the IP of the WINS server, is there any need for the client to use the "browsing" services of a DMB or LMB? What is the order of operations of the client? Here is what I imagine to be the case: 1. client asks LMB for a list of all available shares 2. LMB sends client the list of all known

Hello, please dont come and say one instead of every windows machine in your network, although it is something I would like to see happening.. my network has two lans A and B, I plan to install a SAMBA server in network A and have it act as a WINS Server too. I've been reading the online version of "Using Samba" and I am confused about the Local Master Browser issues, from the

Been experimenting with Samba as a WINS server. Need a WINS server as I am using VPN tunneling. My goal was to set up a central WINS server and have all the computers talk to it for NetBIOS name resolution. In the end I was hoping to have only one Samba server. I have currently worked with: Samba 2.2.7B on a uclinux. Samba 3.0.10 on RedHat. Samba 3.0.10 on Slackware. Samba 3.0.10 on FreeBSD.

I have two subnets S1 and S2 and only one machine running samba, but this machine is connected to both subnets, ahs one interface in each subnet and is acting as a router. I want to have a workgroup that spans the two subnets, so any machine in subnet S1 should see all the machines regardless of their subnet when doing browsing. I know that to do this I need: -One LMB in each subnet using Samba.

Note: LMB = Local Master Browser DMB = Domain Master Browser Have Samba 2.2.7A running embedded in a variant of ucLinux. My interest was only to use Samba as a WINS server. I've set up the SMB.CONF with this config. for one test: wins support = yes local master = no domain master = yes preferred master = no os level = 0 I've set up the SMB.CONF with this config. for the other

Is this stretching the limits of what Samba was designed to do? I have set up a VPN with 2 LANs (I'll call them EastLAN and WestLAN) interconnected through the internet. On EastLAN there is a samba server configured to be the domain master browser as well as the WINS server. PCs connected to this LAN are Win9X and are all in the workgroup EAST. On the WestLAN there is a samba server

Hello, As subject says I am working on browsing and access servers, which are dispatched on two subnet, in one workgroup named "WORKGROUP". First here the network : ( I don' t use ASCI art 'cause I am not an expert on that and it may not be printed as it was emailed. ) So, there is five machine : - one, under debian 6, which is the gateway - two, under

I've been running samba servers with 200+ W98 machines for some time. I'm changing to W2k and everything was going fine. I've upgraded 40 boxes. One W2k box has started announcing itself as a local master browser for one of the workgroups. A samba server thinks it is master, forcing election. Samba will stop being the LMB for about 3 minutes and then will re-establish itself as

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:

Hello, I have been searching for answers now more then a week, but I cannot find a proper solution. Please help me with this: Scenario: Two differnet subnetted networks (1 and 2) connected by a cipe tunnel between two linux Samba boxes over the internet. On network one (1) is a Windows NT PDC installed which currently is the DMB for it's domain (1). On network two (2) one of the linux

I have been having a heck of a time getting cross subnet browsing to work properly. After MANY hours hunting through source and debug logs, I have FINALLY found the source of my browsing issues. My Samba nmdb properly becomes the LMB for my segment on a WAN. I VPN to my servers at the home office and Samba attempts to sync with the DMB. nmbd properly locates the DMB via WINS over the

Hi everyone, I think I solved it: - I installed WINS on both sides on the PDC's (Samba on the one end, NT on the other). - On both subnets the clients are configured by dhcp to use their own PDC's WINS as their primairy WINS server and the WINS on the remote PDC as their "secondairy" WINS server. - TCPIP configuration on the Windows NT PDC configured to use it's own WINS

PROBLEM: Cross-subnet browsing is not working. Browse lists on all machines contain only the machines on the local subnet. SUMMARY OF ANALYSIS: The Local Master Browser (LMB) running Windows XP (ZAYIN) never contacts the Domain Master Browser (DMB) running Samba (BETH) to initiate a synchronization of browse lists.

As I know runnig of Nmbd at Acitve Directory mode is quite unofficial now (but possible) . I will not ask why it is not reccomded to run Nmbd within Samba4 started at AD mode. But if somebody can tell, you are wellcome. But when nmb code implementation is planned to AD part ? That is when nmb functionnality adding to Samba4 acting as AD is planned ? To bring possibiity to use full-forced
