Hi,
does Samba use localhost as WINS-Server, if only 

wins support = yes

is set?

Since wins support = yes is a setting in your local
smb.conf, and since the local smb.conf is read by your
local Samba when starting up (and while running too):
Yes - it will make your localhost a WINS server.
Please note, that it will be nmbd (not smbd) acting
as a WINS server. Also, make sure that you only have
*one* (and never more than one) WINS servers (counting
the Samba- as well as the MS Windows-based machines) in
your environment. It should only be necessary in a
multi-subnetted environment.
Regards,
Marc Hansen
Cheers,
Kurt

2003-07-15 Thread mihai berendei
hi,

please help me in a problem related to samba and
especially to wins support implemented in samba;
i send you attached a diagram of the network i'm in
charged with;
in your opinion, what should i do for the workstations
from subnet 10.10.10.0/24 to see each other in network
neighborhood with samba machine and other workstations
from subnet 192.168.1.0/24 and to logon to domain?
all the stations from subnet 10.10.10.0/24 and
192.168.1.0/24 uses as wins server 192.168.1.1 and the
wins support parameter is set to yes in smb.conf; 
if you consider necessary i would send you attached my
smb.conf file.

  re-populate.
 
  I have looked around and havent found a definitive answer 
 (apologies if I
  overlooked it)...
 
  but if someone could tell me if this is a documented issue, 
 or just me that
  woudl be great
 
 I can not see anywhere in the source code that time server 
 may affect WINS
 operation.
 
 Send me your smb.conf and I will give you feedback.
