Hi Jonathan, I think that it can be made into a WINS server by modifying a few of the settings in the smb.conf file, but will I need to change my LRP more?
I am runnning the Eigerstein LRP and have had VERY good luck in the past with these masquerading firewalls that Charles has put together. PS) Great Job Charles on the LRP!!! cheers, Lonnie > > Hi Lonnie, > Since you already have a Samba server running, you can tell it > to act > as the WINS server also, which will allow Windows machines to see > each other across subnets.
