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

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 ! 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

Can someone clarify this for me? The docs are not clear. It seems that an election is held when: * There is no LMB or the current LMB shuts down. * A machine joins the network with "preferred master = yes" and forces an election. Any other times when an election is held? What's also not clear is how OFTEN the election is held. The how-to makes a passing reference that "two

I realize this is most likely the most killed topic anyone on the net. Most of the information i've found don't directly answer this question. I have a Samba server set up as the DMB and LMB via smb.conf. I have set up nmbd to do WINS. I setup all my XP box clients to use my Samba server. I ran Ethereal on the server and can see the Samba server wins election for DMA and LMB. I can

I see from the log that my system install won the browser election and I see it show up in the WINS monitor as <1B>, but I can't see other subnets in "Net'Neighborhood" and I didn't see this system having an entry '_MSBROWSE_' like my '03 Server on the other subnet did. Shouldn?t I see a _MSBROWSE_ entry for each LMB on each subnet ? CONFIDENTIALITY

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

Can somebody explain to me how the whole Local Master Browser thing works? I'm running samba across 3 subnets, and all the docs tell you to set up a Local Master Browser on each subnet. I couldn't find any documentation on how to actually do that so I used the remote announce option in smb.conf, and it's working great, but now there are two machines (one for each subnet outside of the

Hello. Browsing accross subnets fails because "route2-3" can't sync its local browse list with the domain master browser "classix", which is also the WINS server. Everything else is fine. There is 1 and only 1 WINS server (classix) and no NT server. The error message in nmb log of route2-3 is: ==================================

Dear all, I am facing a peculiar situation: on my smb.conf log level = 5, and on my windows machine I log on as a local administrator to add remote desktop users that are in fact domain users. When my worgroup = SOMETHING, everything works fine. When I change my worgroup to: workgroup = example.com, and try to add a new remote desktop user, and set as an object name example.com\user and try

R Experts, I would like to create a series of variables without having to assign a separate line of code for each new variable. My abbreviated dataframe (DF) contains two groups of linked variables (SP1:SP3) and (CAU1:CAU3). Within SP1:SP3 are character codes (full dataframe contains 26 unique codes and SP1:SP9, CAU1:CAU9). CAU1 represents the quantitative measurement of code x in variable

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

Dear All, Sorry if this is the wrong place for this question, or if I'm just being daft, but I can't get warnquota to send emails to the right address. When I put a test user (gollum) over quota, and run warnquota on a server (nfs2.lmb.internal), the email generated by warnquota appears in the maillog as "to=<gollum at nfs2.lmb.internal>," What I need is the email to

I am still trying to make samba work over a WAN with multiple workgroups although I am just about to throw in the towel. I had hoped to find a solution that would permit a Windows PC to browse a (MS) workgroup (ie retrieve the browse list from the workgroup master browser for a remote (MS) workgroup when that MB is NOT a samba server). Since WINS only provides the broadcast address of the remote

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.

Specifying Browser Computers When you start a computer running Windows 2000, the browser service looks in the registry for the entry MaintainServerList to determine whether a computer will become a browser. MaintainServerList is found in the following registry subkey: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Browser\Parameters Table I.1 shows the values to which MaintainServerList

List, I'm trying to figure out how to get access to remote shares.... I have two RH 5.2 boxes running 2.04b separated by routers (pecan the VIRCIO lmb and shipe the COMMUNITY lmb)... I turned on remote browse sync to get the browselist from COMMUNITY onto VIRCIO. The COMMUNITY domain shows up on VIRCIO, but it is empty... I don't know, but I think that this could be security
