similar to: Cleaning up Network Neighborhood

I'm trying to determine if the global configuration options for remote announce and remote browse sync work for browsing a different workgroup in a different subnet. In the books I have, it just talks about using these options to span the same workgroup across two subnets. In our situation, for example, I have two different workgroups (WG1 - 10.50.50.1 and WG2 - 10.100.50.1). Each of these

Hi, I'm trying to set up browsing across subnets to provide an 'enterprise'-wide (sorry for the MS term ;-) browse list / Network Neighbourhood. I've read BROWSING.TXT, but I can't see how machines on different subnets in different domains/workgroups sync up (using Samba, anyway). On my local subnet, I've set up a clunky old Linux 386 (Samba 1.9.18p8) as the browse

Hi, i'm reading: samba-3.0.20a/docs/htmldocs/Samba3-HOWTO/NetworkBrowsing.html#id2564441 ... The election process is /fought out, so to speak/ over every NetBIOS network interface. In the case of a Windows 9x/Me machine that has both TCP/IP and IPX installed and has NetBIOS enabled over both protocols, the election will be decided over both protocols. As often happens, if the Windows 9x/Me

Greetings, All! Is there at last a solution? I've only found questions, in the list, and on the network. The issue is that DC built on Samba4 does not report to network browsers neither it is participating in election to become browser itself. Consequently, it is not visible in the neighborhood neither on Windows, nor on Linux. I've managed to force a second Linux host (member server)

Hello. My problem is not samba realted, but I might hope that it can help me to solve it. Our network is about 200 users. Some of them are using windows. But today Network Neighborhood on all computers became empty. I've tried smbtree and its listing is empty too. If I enable -d10 I can see in the last string: "Unable to find master browser by broadcast" The only idea I have,

I have 2 subnets. Subnet 1 has an NT WINS server. Subnet 2 has a Samba server acting as domain master browser and local master browser for a workgroup. If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 1 (call it PC_A), I can see all the hosts in the workgroup on both subnets. If I view the network neighborhood from a Win 95 PC on Subnet 2 (call it PC_B), I cannot see PC_A. I

Recently, we made a switch from 1.9.18 to 2.0.3. Under 1.9.18, we had local master turned off to prevent a browser election war. However, under some network configurations, (where the system was alone on a Workgroup), the system would, quite appropriately, not appear in the network neighborhood. So for 2.0.3 we changed the config file to allow election participation (local master = yes).

Hello All, Could someone tell me why I can't see my linux box (nermal) in network neighborhood on my NT Workstation or 95/8 machines here is my smb.conf: #======================= Global Settings ===================================== [global] # netbios name = How machine will appear in network neighborhood netbios name = nermal # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg:

Hello, I'm looking for help with the following setup. I have my own network of about 5 windows 95/98 computers and 1 linux box. with IP addresses 192.168.10.* The one running linux is actually set up as a router, with 2 ethernet cards The other network that it is connected to is the residence ethernet at my school, which is connected to the internet. >From behind the router, I can use all

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

Hi all, just today I have setup my box to also be a WINS server and I started getting domain master name query fail messages shown as below.

Hi all, At my work I`ve set up a VPN. When I connect to it, my colleagues see all the workgroups from my side of the VPN (I live on a campus with ~50 workgroups). Do you know how I block the workgroup discovery on through the VPN gateway? Is the broadcast done on a specific port? Is samba actively repeating the broadcast and their replies? Greetings Tjerk Jan

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 there, In our Network Neighborhood I can see items for old workgroups and domains that no longer exist. For example, in /var/log/messages I see: Apr 13 04:02:04 ch1 nmbd[9227]: ^ICH(1) current master browser = CH1 Apr 13 04:02:04 ch1 nmbd[9227]: ^IBCH(7) current master browser = FIRE997 Apr 13 04:02:05 ch1 nmbd[9227]: ^IWORKGROUP(5) current master browser = SAFETYLAPTOP Apr 13 04:02:05

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
