similar to: Samba won't share: ?nmblookup problem

Hi folks, I find that nmblookup seems to be receiving responses to name queries, but ignoring them. Here's what's happening: # nmblookup somehost querying somehost on x.y.255.255 name_query failed to find name somehost But watching the transaction with ethereal on the local host, I see that: 1. nmblookup on local udp port nnnn (some random number above 1024) sends an nbns

I'm debugging my Samba setup using the "Troubleshooting Techniques" from Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours. Everything works fine up until the nmbd section. I am able to do the following correctly: nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 __SAMBA__ nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 POGO (the server) nmblookup -B 192.168.1.255 WIN-CLIENT (the client) but when I do nmblookup -B 192.168.1.255

I'm running Samba 1.9.18p8. If I use nmblookup to query the name of an NT server, as in nmblookup -A <ip address> then a packet trace shows an RPC reply coming back and nmblookup displays a list of names belonging to the NT server. If I try the same query on a Windows 95 machine, nmblookup only says Looking up status of <ip address> No status response (this is not unusual)

I'm trying to use nmblookup to find the IP address of a Windows machine called "MARKETKA" (only with an accent over the 'E'). If I do a reverse lookup on the IP address, with debugging enabled, I can see that the hex code for the accented 'E' character is 0x90: $ nmblookup -d 4 -A 192.168.1.15 | grep MARK answers 0 char .MARK.TKA hex

Hi Everyone, >From windows 2K, machine I could see Samba server but I can't get its share. I tried to follow the instruction given at http://samba.planetmirror.com/samba/ftp/docs/Samba24Hc13.pdf to resolve the problem. nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 _SAMBA_ and nmblookup -B 10.10.255.255 real-samba-server-name fails for me but nmblookup -U 127.0.0.1 real-samba-server-name

Hi, Some time ago, I wrote a small script based on some information on one of the Samba lists, which let me figure out which machine a user was logged in on. The script was this:- # smbfind: watch for someone to log in PATH=/bin:/usr/bin case $# in 0) echo 'Usage: smbfind <nt_login>' 1>&2; exit 1 esac nmblookup -S "${1}#03" | awk '/<00> - /{print

Hi, I can't get "net view \\<servername>" to work from my Windows test client. It fails with "The network path was not found". I followed some of the online debugging guides and have found that a couple of the test nmblookups on the server are failing. The server is named 'fileserver1' and its IP address is 155.2.196.251 for the purpose of this email.

Folks I've installed Centos6 and Samba. I noticed that the program "nmblookup" and a few other Samba related programs, documented in the RHEL6 guide, are not included in Centos6. A search using YUM also did not find "nmblookup", using the repositories: base, centosplus, contrib, cr, epel, extras, updates, virtualbox Has its functionality been moved elsewhere, or

Hi there, i have Samba 2.2.7a running on FreeBSD-STABLE 4.7. I set up a few things and smbd and nmbd start up at boot, i can browse the net. However, nmblookup can only find IPs by SMB-names, but not SMB-names by IPs. Here is an example output of the failed lookup: %nmblookup -d 3 210.104.1.133 Initialising global parameters params.c:pm_process() - Processing configuration file

Hi All: When I usign nmblookup to query my domain controller, I got different = results: root@Latrell:# nmblookup -A ADDomain.com Looking up status of 169.254.211.91 No reply from 169.254.211.91 root@Latrell:# nmblookup -A ADDomain.com Looking up status of 172.23.26.204 WIN-2003 <00> - M <ACTIVE> WIN <00> -

When I have my iptables based firewall running, I cannot get nmblookup to locate any computers (Windows 98, Samba, Windows NT 4, or Windows XP) I require tight firewall settings, because college students can cause havoc on a network when its servers are not secure. I need a way to get nmblookup to work without disabling the firewall. The standard conntrack module does not work, because

Hi all, I installed Samba 3.0 a week or two ago and I'm finding out that some things that used to work with 2.2.8a don't work in 3.0. LinNeighborhood used to work with just a setting of "-" in the "Preferences" -> "Scan Preferences" -> "Workgroup" box. Now, with 3.0 I must have a "Primary master browser" set, (the name of the

I have an XP Pro box on my LAN, and I'm trying to figure out why nmblookup '*' can't see it. I'm writing a script that finds all the shares on the LAN and mounts them, and it works great except for this one box. On another windows box, when I run "net view", the XP box is listed as I expect. On my linux box, when I run "nmblookup -A 192.168.0.111" it

Hello list, The issue is as the topic says, following are details: the Samba server running as ADS member, NBT enabled on Windows machines, no WINS. Windows machines can find each other by 'nbtstat -a' but cannot find the Samba server. The Samba server can't find neither Windows machines nor itself by 'nmblookup -a <netbios-name>', error message is "could not open

Hi, I'm the author of lisa (http://lisa-home.sourceforge.net). Currently I'm trying to include netbios name lookup into my program and am using the sources from nmblookup. Can you please help me ? What is the meaning of these status flags and the status type or why can I find docs ? printf("%s <%x> - %s\n", cleanname, status[i].type, //

Hi People, Im using nmblookup from linux box to determine the IP of given of a machine from its netBIOSName. "nmblookup" seems to work find within a single subnet, but when looking up machines on different subnets I run into trouble. I have tried: Nmblook -B <subnet> netBIOSName, but that still does not help. Am I doing something wrong? Any help or ideas would be much

Hello The current network configuration is like this: * We have a few PCs with Linux or Windows XP * Those PCs are interconnected using an Ethernet network * The router to which all PCs are connected also acts as a NAT, which allows access to the internet * The network doesn't have any DNS server (we manually entered the ISP's DNS servers' IP addresses on each

I have FC1 + samba 3.0.1. From Nautilus I can't browse into smb:/// to view any available domain/workgroup. But I can go directly to any computer with smb:///conputer-name. When I tried to call 'nmblookup -M -- -' I get: querying __MSBROWSE__ on 192.168.0.255 name_query failed to find name __MSBROWSE__ #01 Does anyone know what's wrong? PS. Initially I had Samba 3.0.0 and

I'm looking for a lightweight version of nmblookup for an embedded device that needs to connect to windows boxes who have had their IP addresses assigned by DHCP. I want a simple application that given the name of a windows box on the network, it will give me the IP address. From analysing the exchange with ethereal, it seems like a very simple request/response exchange, and I really
