If Samba is configured to try port 445 first, the 'smbclient -M' command can't send messages to Win2K machines:
$ smbclient -M server -p 445 added interface ip=192.168.8.5 bcast=192.168.8.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Got a positive name query response from 192.168.8.10 ( 192.168.8.10 ) read_socket_with_timeout: timeout read. read error = Connection reset by peer. message start: Read error: Connection reset by peer Ethereal shows that the packets sent by Samba include a 'Netbios Session Service' header. Is this the cause of the failure, or is the Windows messaging service inextricably bound to NetBIOS? In the former case, where would I look in the code to remove the NetBIOS header from the packet? -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
