Yes, I thought that was strange as well, yet, here's what nmblookup finds. bash-2.05a$ winsq npcenter querying npcenter on 129.219.13.105 129.219.120.138 npcenter<00> Looking up status of 129.219.120.138 NPCENTER <00> - M <ACTIVE> NPCENTER <03> - M <ACTIVE> NPCENTER <20> - M <ACTIVE> ..__MSBROWSE__. <01> - <GROUP> M <ACTIVE> NPCGROUP <00> - <GROUP> M <ACTIVE> NPCGROUP <1b> - M <ACTIVE> NPCGROUP <1d> - M <ACTIVE> NPCGROUP <1e> - <GROUP> M <ACTIVE> is there a way to use smbclient with an ip address to bypass any name resolution differences that may be happening between windows and unix? -- David Bear College of Public Programs/ASU Mail Code 0803
