I changed the smb.conf to have a different NetBios Name then the
workgroup 'DAMEN'.
There does not appear to any change from the XP 'My Network Places'
Although the nmbd.log indicates that the name DAMEN<00> is not found.

process_node_status_request: status request for name DAMEN<00> from IP

Although 'nmblookup DAMEN' finds the name when executed on the linux
box upon which smbd/nmbd is running.
querying DAMEN on 192.168.255.255
192.168.0.1 DAMEN<00>
This appear to (not)work the same with or without DAMEN listed in the
lmhosts file.
Do I need to list the workgroup name somewhere else also?
Thanks,

Thanks. I removed the entry for DAMEN from lmhosts and restart smb/nmb
and
no change that I can see.

Having the machine name equal to the workgroup name is a no-no, as far

I assume I am doing(or not) something extremely simple that is causing

I can access the shares by 'Map Network Drive' and using the IP
address(192.168.0.1).
I have set the workgroup name 'DAMEN' in the lmhosts file.
192.168.0.1 DAMEN
I have set the workgroup in the smb.conf file.
workgroup = damen
netbios name = damen
I have configured the Samba server to be the Domain Master Browser
os level = 35
domain master = yes
preferred master = yes
wins support = yes
I have configured the [global] to be browseable.
browseable = yes
public = yes
I have set the XP box to be on a home network(not bussiness network)
and
workgroup to DAMEN.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Fred
