Samba is working perfect on our main subnet, but it won't for any additional subnets on this domain. We use NT authentication and my system is an RS/6000. I just found out that our routers for these additional subnets have netbeui/netbios turned off. Network Admin. said it's because they're set not to allow broadcasting (and they're not going to start), and turning

Thanks to those who wrote and suggested I remove NetBEUI from my Win95 machines. Here's the next chapter in the story: First, based on another suggestion, I tried "netstat -a" on the Win95 machine "secretary". It didn't show any kind of traffic on ports 137-139 (even though files WERE being shared at the time). Next, I tried removing NetBEUI from

Greetings, I read with interest the few posts in the archives discussing problems I have recently encountered with data corruption of an ACT 2000 database residing on a Samba 2.07 share, SuSE Linux 7.1 (2.2.28 kernel), with about 25 Win2K clients. I did not, however, see any apparent resolution to this major problem - I either am going to have to rebuild from scratch my current Win2K Server, or

Hi, I replaced my old Windows NT box runnig as PDC with a Cobolt Qube 3 and Samba-2.2.2-C1. Cobalt Linux version is 2.2.16C33_III+VPN. With the WinNT as PDC, all windows client's in the network had only TCP/IP protocol installed and they were able to browse the network and see each other. With Samba running as PDC, TCP/IP only is not enough to browse the network. I had to install NETBIOS

Hello,all. I have Microsoft DOS client that only supports NetBIOS protocol Can SAMBA route NetBIOS protocol and how can I do it? Sorry if this question was asked by many users before me. I'm first time here. Ivan.

Hi, I'm running samba 2.0.5a under Solaris 2.7 and am seeing a problem where the netbios alias for our print server sometimes becomes unavailable. It is still visible in Network Neighbourhood, but double-clicking comes back with "<blah> could not be found on the network". However, I can connect to the machine OK, by double-clicking on its real name, rather than its alias. I

HI all ! I've read in a doc, that Samba is talking only with the clients where Netbios over TCP/IP is running ! I guess it is true, but are there any solution maybe to connect with a client where only the NETBEUI is the only one installed protocol ? It would be from DOS, I have a DOS boot disk which is waking up the Netbeui, and it would be difficult to prepare it to wake up the TCP/IP !

I've configured a Samba server based on Ubuntu packages. It uses LDAP as backend. The server announces itself using two netbios (?) names - OFFICE and SERVER. Originally I had planned to use OFFICE. Then I switched to SERVER. I've looked at the config files and search for any occurences of OFFICE, but I can't find any. Any ideas where I should look or what I should do? Thanks,

Hello, A client of mine has this ancient software called VideoPrinter (working on Win98) and an ancient hardware that connects to the PC through both LAN cable and serial (COM) cable.

Hello all, There is still a use for netbeui (non-routed protocol) in the network. If you are using a VPN client that does not allow split tunneling, you can still access printers on another local system with netbeui. I would like to remove the windows system and have my print shares on my Linux system with Samba. Is all consideration of netbeui within the Linux/Samba environment gone?
