Using the procedure described in that article, I verified that
the computer in question *is* running NetBIOS (it has both the
"direct hosted" and "NBT" transports).
If I run "snoop host rosalind" and "smbutil lookup rosalind",
I get no snoop output.
If I run snoop and exclude communication with a few other hosts
(e.g., punch-sfbay.sun.com, the desktop machine where I'm typing
the commands into an ssh window), all I get is:
Using device iprb0 (promiscuous mode)
? -> (multicast) ETHER Type=8781 (Unknown), size=109 bytes
home-105 -> (broadcast) ARP C Who is 192.168.0.1, linksys ?
home-105 -> 192.168.0.255 UDP D=2190 S=3855 LEN=141
home-100 -> 192.168.0.255 UDP D=2190 S=2599 LEN=166
? -> (multicast) ETHER Type=8781 (Unknown), size=109 bytes
nissan -> 192.168.0.255 UDP D=631 S=631 LEN=165
Would the fact that I'm punched-in make any difference? I've got it
configured for "allow local LAN".
Here's what I get on Linux...
If I run Nautilus, it shows me four machines on my local network.
If I run "smbclient -N -R bcast -L nissan" (nissan is my OpenSolaris
server running Samba, the machine on which I'm trying to get smbutil
to work), I get:
$ smbclient -N -R bcast -L nissan

You can see the four machines on my network.
Then I tried:
$ smbclient -N -R bcast -L rosalind

I get similar information for "dell4600". "rosalind is in the
local /etc/hosts file, "dell4600" isn't.
This seems to indicate that the WINS name server on nissan is working.
What else should I do to figure out why smbutil isn't working?
