For netbios, you don't really have to search the list: there is code in the contrib module (also available in the download section). You just have to define the device's name as NETBIOS_LWIP_NAME and call netbios_init() after the stack is initialized. The udp raw api is used to answer to request packets asking for the name defined by NETBIOS_LWIP_NAME.

Yes, you must implement netbios name resolving.
Do a search in this list, some people have posted code snippets how to do this. Regards Bonny Gijzen,

*Onderwerp:* [lwip-users] Setting my hostname on a LAN controlled by Windows2003 Server

Hi,

I'm building an embedded web server using LWIP. It uses DHCP to get an IP address, and I have enabled hostnames so the name is sent back in the DHCP REQUEST packet.

This platform is an example kit for customers so I want them to be able to plug it into their LAN and then navigate to the server using its hostname in a web browser.

This doesn't seem to work on our network which uses Windows 2003 Server. I suspect that the list of hostnames is secured by the windows domain server, so it won't dynamically assign the hostname for my server when I plug it in.

Is there any way around this?

Regards,
Joe.
