Yes! It can be done. You must create one master server configuration. It will create the master server as seen in the Windows networking browser. In its smb.conf file you will have something like: [global] ... workgroup = BIGBIRDS netbios name = ALBATROS netbios aliases = CRANE MUGABIRD ... include = /etc/samba/smb.%L.conf Then for each alias (CRANE and MUGABIRD) you would create an /etc/samba/smb.'name'.conf file like: /etc/samba/smb.crane.conf: --------------------------------- [global] netbios name = CRANE .... [share1] ... /etc/samba.smb.mugabird.conf: ------------------------------------- [global] ... netbios name = MUGABIRD ... [share2] ... I hope that is clear enough. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Samba-Team Member Phone: +1 (650) 580-8668 Author: The Official Samba-3 HOWTO & Reference Guide, ISBN: 0131453556 Samba-3 by Example, ISBN: 0131472216 Hardening Linux, ISBN: 0072254971 OpenLDAP by Example, ISBN: 0131488732 Other books in production. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
