Are you using an ms dns server? An ms dns server can generate netbios queries.
If yes, check the dns server help about 'WINS lookup integration'. Quoted: "The presence of a WINS resource record can instruct the DNS service to use WINS to look up any forward queries for host names or names that are not found in the zone database." ----- Original Message ----- From: "DOLIST Technical Center" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 29, 2002 3:24 PM Subject: [xmail] Re: Broadcast requests Bonjour Bill, Friday, November 29, 2002, 2:17:23 PM, Bill Healy wrote: > Do you need netbios protocol on your xmail server?
