similar to: Query NETBIOS names with python

https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11656 Bug ID: 11656 Summary: Escaping broken with --files-from Product: rsync Version: 3.1.1 Hardware: x64 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: core Assignee: wayned at samba.org Reporter:

Is it possible to ask a machine for its NetBIOS name if it's running either Windows or Samba? I tried a few various nmblookup and smbclient command lines to no avail. I would like to be able to query a machine (by IP) and have it respond with its nb name. I've noted that if I perform an smbclient -L -I on a machine, it will not list its shares unless I get the NetBIOS name correct...

I am trying to connect to computers running windows9x knowing only the IP address using smbclient. on windows computers i can type \\130.15.210.185 in the address bar and browse the shares of computers that don't show up in my network neighbourhood (computers on other subnets don't seem to show up, but i can still use them by typing the IP in) I am using smbclient like so:

Hey geeks, I have been reading several faqs and howtos now and haven't come very far with what I really wanted to accomplish: I have installed samba from the RH 7.2 distro rpm. I have set it up so I can access my windows shares on the linux mashine. I can "ping athlon" (which is the netbios-name for the win2k mashine) I can "ping linux" (which is obviously my

I need a pointer to what Fine Manual I should go read to set up my netbios name resolution, because all my attempts to use netbios names are being resolved against dns ... I have one subnet (192.168.2/24), with several Fedora 11 machines and several Windows XP machines, and a couple SMB/CIFS NAS units which also share printers. No domain, it's all just a workgroup. The WinXP machines

Hello. I try to configure IPSEC to bybass ssh protocol. For example: setkey -FP setkey -F setkey -c << EOF spdadd 10.1.1.1/32 10.6.10.50[22] tcp -P in none ; spdadd 10.1.1.1/32 10.6.10.50 tcp -P in ipsec ah/transport//require ; EOF (Pass incoming ssh packets to 10.6.10.50, block other tcp packets) This works under fresh 7-CURRENT(FAST_IPSEC). On fresh 6-STABLE (neither FAST_IPSEC nor

Hello, I use 3.0.25 samba server as PDC. I have installed samba server, 2 work stations joined into domain. Ping between server and clients are good, and between client good too. But when I try to access from client A to client B, windows' explorer are hang up. At this time tcpdump show a lot of packets from client B to server, and samba's log file for machine b say that user auth was

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,

I suspect a bug in either smbclient 4.0.9 or CUPS 1.6.3 (which wouldn't be Samba's problem, of course) where a linux client does not send the server's Called Name in the NetBIOS session request sent to a server using smb. Now, the problem is that my university's print system selects the print configuration file to use based on matching the Called Name. No Called Name leads to no

Hello, cat you help me, can't resolve problem about month. I have 2 server (i586 and x86_64) and 2 client machine in one network. Client have Windows XP operation system. At x86_64 server a have install samba 3.0.25 server as PDC, two machines join to domain. But when I try to access from one (A) client to another (B) with user named gik Windows' explorer hang up. Samba logs for machine B

Ahh, many sleepless nights spent on a stinky Windows 98 box! I'm using Samba 2.2.0 with Red Hat Linux 7.1, and am having trouble resolving the samba server. I went through the "fault tree" in the "Using Samba" book, and this was the section I got stuck on. Do I need to be running a name server besides nmbd? nmblookup returns some results: ----------8<----------

All, 1. Here is my network configuration: One NT4 PDC One NT4 BDC Two Sun boxes, both configured as Domain Member servers running Samba version 3.0.10 providing file and print sharing. Three Windows 2000 boxes configured as Citrix servers Two Sun boxes configured as Sun Ray servers (used in conjunction with the Citrix servers) One UNIX box used as a DNS Master Server One UNIX box used

I have a client (Fedora 19) and a server (Fedora 14/Samba 3.5.11) which works fine. I'm now setting up a new server (Fedora 20/Samba 4.1.3) with more or less the same smb.conf 1. Issuing: sudo smbclient -L //srv001 -U suser list all shares correct. 2. Issuing: sudo mount -t cifs //srv/Share3 /mnt/share3/ -o username=suser Password for suser@//srv/Share3: **** Retrying with upper case share

Hello I got this message : ____________________________________________________________ 3614: Connection to XP failed SMB connection failed ___________________________________________________________ when i try to mount mount a share with netbios name like that: $mount -t smbfs -o username=test,password=test //Xp/share /mnt/floppy if i mount the same share with ip address that's no problem.

When I am setup external passwd change script (syncldap) for sync my smb pass and unix pass, and change smb password on my windows client client, him return error, but password change is successful! It's log from samba for my windows client machine: [2004/08/04 11:46:52, 3] smbd/chgpasswd.c:chat_with_program(424) chat_with_program: Dochild for user g-marchenko (uid=0,gid=0) (as_root =

After giving up on trying to slim down smbtree, I've seemingly worked out enough of the NetBIOS and SMB/CIFS protocols to implement a bare-bones replacement in Python. At less than 500 lines, it's pretty easy to follow, though it's very hackish and badly needs a clean rewrite (which I'm working on now, in C). In the mean time, if anyone's interested, the Python code's

I, too have been looking into alternatives to the rsync-based sysvol replication workaround, and really liked the idea of using the existing Sysvol SMB share, rather than a secondary protocol (with its own authentication, etc). When I realized that Andrew Bartlett was a primary developer of both Samba and Rsync, I was even more surprised that Rsync doesn't support an smb:// URL. csync [1] is

> Another thing came to mind, make sure the global "guest account" exist. > The guest account has to be a valid account for browsing to work. yes.. it does.. I have it on my system, called pcguest, with /dev/null shell and it works fine, when i try to check it: BlackStar:/usr/samba/bin# smbclient '\\blackstar\tmp' -U pcguest Added interface ip=194.135.207.21

Hi, Can somebody tell me a way to get the netbios name when I only know the IP number ? nslookup won't work for me since we are using DHCP (which the DNS server doesn't know about). Since the Samba software knows about both worlds, I was wondering if there is a way to use it for that purpose. 'smbclient -I w.x.y.z' still needs a service name and 'nmblookup' goes from name
