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

hi, I need a hand setting up cross subnet browsing. Does anyone have some good news group postings, or a HOWTO? I have 2 samba servers, and 2 subnets. Each servers sits on it's own domain/workgroup. I think this should be much simpler than it is, and perhaps I am just missing one or two settings. Of the 2 servers: A, B I would like 'A' to do any serving or hold any

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:

My network looks like this: internet 192.168.0.0/24 router ----+----+----+----- internal 192.168.5.0/24 | | | router ----+-----+------+- LNB--->mswin | | (also a | | | client | | samba | | .... | | server) | | samba | | samba

I'm trying to set up cross-subnet browsing using Samba on a Linux box and a Sparc UltraEnterprise with Win95 and NT Workstation clients. I'm using the Sparc as the domain master and also as the WINS server on the 108 subnet. The Linux box is the local master on the 46 subnet. Both are running Samba 1.9.17alpha4. I can see the conversation between the two samba servers and the browse

Hi, everybody: Forgive me for bringing this to you. We normally use Samba servers but are dealing with a situation involving two Windows 2003 servers and browsing, and the truth is, I can't think of a better forum to bring questions about browsing. We have the following situation: Domain controller is a Windows 2000 machine at 192.168.0.100 The backup domain controller is a Windows 2003

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

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

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

Don't know how that last email took off, but that wasn't suppose to happen. Any the root 3 59.6 0.0 0 0 ? R< 10:16 11:04 [events/0] is a kernel thread that handles weird irq stuff. I just disabled onboard sound and USB and it went away. I'm still left with my other problems though, here they are 2.) I'm having LMB and DMB problems on the server,

Hi, There may be a simple mistake of mine, but i just can't figure it out: I tryed to play around with options but with no success. If you could help me i'll be grateful, so that's is my environment: - there are 2 networks: 172.16.0.0/255.255.255.0 and 172.16.1.0/255.255.255.0 - i've setup up a Linux box with 2 cards : eth0 172.16.0.2 and eth1 172.16.1.2 - i have Win9x clients

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

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

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

Hi * I have a question about windows network browsing from linux box in a multi-subneted network. I have such network topology: my subnet is 10.105.27.224/27, there are 10 boxes in my subnet; also there are several other subnets - 10.105.27.0/27, 10.105.27.96/27, ..., 172.17.51.64/27, ..., 172.17.48.0/26, ...
