No sir! CIFS networking can use WINS or broadcast based name resolution. There is NO need to put your samba server on Linux into an lmhosts file and there is absolutely no need to run DNS just for MS Windows file and print support. WINS is the best name resolver for MS Windows networking without any question. - John T. > > On Fri, Dec 13, 2002 at 12:03:25PM +1100, tran duong wrote: > > Dear all, > > > > I have an Linux Server 7.1 which doen't connect to internet and doesn't have a DNS >server as well.
