Dear Samba 2.0.3 experts,

I guess my problem with Samba 2.0.3 on VAX OpenVMS
rely on NETMASK and BCAST definitions. 
Entries in Multinet program seem to be correct, that is, 
Sub Net Mask = 255.255.255.0 e gateway = 10.87.16.1
But, when I map my Linux machine from VAX and vice-versa I get 
the following results:

On VAX: (encryption = no)
BSUHEP::SYSTEM> smbclient "-L" nostromo.physics
Added interface ip=10.87.16.252 bcast=10.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0
Password: Domain=[BSUHEP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.0.10]

On Linux: (encryption = yes)
[lgemedia@nostromo lgemedia]$ smbclient -L vaxstation
added interface ip=10.87.16.254 bcast=10.87.16.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Got a positive name query response from 10.87.16.252 ( 10.87.16.252 )
Password: 
*** Nothing happens then, even having GUEST account correctly defined
on VAX.

Both machines should have the same NMASK because they are in the
same network segment. As I have no problem in connecting to my VAX, it
seems that all MULTINET parameters are correctly defined.

Now, searching on GOOGLE I found a message saying that NMASK definition
in Samba 2.0.3 VAX is broken. Is that right ?
I appreciate any comments on this subject.

Thanks and many cheers,
 Luiz
