Hi list. I'm new to this list, so please bear with me. I've got samba 2.2.8a on Solaris 9 (SPARC). I've run all the tests. testparm runs fine. Other tests: # nmblookup -B stage __SAMBA__ querying __SAMBA__ on 192.168.18.25 192.168.18.25 __SAMBA__<00> # # nmblookup -B 192.168.1.9 '*' querying * on 192.168.1.9 192.168.1.9 *<00> # # nmblookup -d 2 '*'

Hi, just joined the list and know very little about smb. I'm trying to do something that should be simple, but my current solution isn't working 100% All I need is a list of smb shares on the network. I'm doing this: /usr/bin/nmblookup -M -- - and then use this on each ip returned: /usr/bin/smbclient -g -p 139 -NL <ip addr> That works for most cases but it fails to find

I have a pretty simply home LAN with a Linux box (Mandrake 9.1) and 2 XP boxes. The workgroup is named UNIVERSE and the machines are earth (Linux), voyager (XP) and starbase (XP). (smb.conf has security=user). Voyager can browse over to \\earth\share no problem. Recently I connected starbase to my LAN using a wireless router. When on starbase I cannot browse to \\earth\share. When I do so I

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

Hi, After lots of struggle and rtfm I finally got most things running, except for 'nmblookup' and 'net getlocalsid' on the BDC. I'm not new to Samba, but plenty more to learn. Here's the setup in summary: system pdc is the PDC on subnet 192.168.0.0, running SuSE10.1, LDAP master, wins server, domain master browser, no iptables; system bdc is the BDC on subnet 192.168.2.0,

hi! Sorry in advance if I am not on the right mailing-list and sorry if my question is cover somewhere is doc (I didn't find anything).

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

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.

I'm trying to troubleshoot a new samba setup on a tiny network, and I'm clearly missing something. I'm running Samba 3.0.22 on Ubuntu Linux. When I first set it up, it seemed to go so smoothly. I changed all the workstations to the same workgroup (RABNETWORK) and they could see each other and the server, but they couldn't open anything on the server. I don't really understand
