Perfect. Working now with my pure TCP/IP network;-)

and the debug 

Wed Feb 25 21:38:09 2004  CMPFCTN_DEBUG: setResolvedName(0x085d8980) 0  -> 6 
192.168.11.100 - hash.c(1160)

For me ist is working now without problems with and without -n. But I'm not
really interested in the NetBIOS name resolution. See the debug of another
systems name resolution phases:

Wed Feb 25 22:00:24 2004  CMPFCTN_DEBUG: setResolvedName(0x085ded50) 0  -> 3 ETHER - 
pbuf.c(664)
Wed Feb 25 22:04:31 2004  CMPFCTN_DEBUG: setResolvedName(0x085ded50) 3 aether -> 6 
192.168.11.240 - pbuf.c(3216)

The first is the entry of the NetBIOS name broadcast, the second entry is
an entry generate at the moment I pinged that host. Curious in that way that
the first broadcast packet contained the MAC, the IP-Adress and the name
of the host. Why not a 6 at the first packet? And the NetBIOS name a 5?
And the IP-Address a 4 and for folks like me using the -n parameter 
switching off both 5 and 6?

Otherwise I fear there are folks around who will say something like 'the NetBIOS
Name Service is a name service and of equal value as the DNS resolution'.
Think it is a valid argument (not for me, I'm interested in the IPs only an can
live with NetBIOS prioritized at 3).

Cheers
