The biggest problem here IMO is that the wins.dat is a temporary dump of what nmbd has in memory. You can't edit it during run time and get changes immediately. We also don't really support static wins entries yet (I know we have that horrible wins.dat hack but it's not really easy). cheers, jerry -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDPVPyIR7qMdg1EfYRAtMqAKCGGuBcapjgLt3WpMcgFgDRhJ/ezQCdFKHV LkYqReW0l3cgWky7yg6a2aI= =rugG -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
