Hi all,

Ok, this is not directly a backuppc problem, but I can't find an answer
anywhere... My backuppc will not run because when it pings the other
computers on the network it does not receive the correct ip for the netbios
name.

For example, I have one machine named 'gary' with a static ip of
192.168.123.200 but if you ping 'gary' you get an address of 65.xxx.xxx.xxx
(it is a verizon ip address, I believe, I did not copy the whole address
here, that is not relavant).

I also get wrong ip addresses for computers that have DHCP enabled
(non-static ip addresses).  I am running Win XP on three machines (one is a
dual boot w/Mandriva 2008.1), Win 2000 on one, Mandrivia Linux on one (not
the dual boot machine) with a USR robotics wireless router.  DSL is from
verizon.

I have searched the net and have not had much luck.  I have reset the
router, cleared hosts files, and have issued DNS flush  and reconnect
commands on my windows machines with no changes.  I have also tried using
rsync instead of just the samba share method, but still no change.

Any ideas??
