"Martin Stacey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Enviado por: Para: "Samba" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: .samba.org Asunto: [Samba] WINS Question? 06/08/2003 02:23 a.m. Por favor, responda a martin I have setup my Samba server as a WINS server using the wins support = yes parameter. My remote network can see the Samba server at our head office fine. I have also setup the WINS setting on my PC (W2K Pro box) to point to the IP address of my Samba server. When I do a nmblookup -R -U <IP address of WINS server> <name of my PC> on my Samba server I get this reponse; querying pc1 on 10.1.1.251 wins_srv_died(): Could not mark WINS server 10.1.1.251 down. Address not found in server list. name_query failed to find name pc1 However, if I use the same command a query the Samba server I get this reponse; querying felix on 10.1.1.251 10.1.1.251 felix<00> Why isn't my Samba server storing the NetBIOS name of my PC? BTW, I am using Samba 2.2.7 supply by RH on a RH 7.3 box.
