All We have offshore (North Sea) a DEC Alpha running OSF3.2 and samba 1.9.17p2. Samba was installed to allow the PC's on the company network access to the reports that the DEC generates and stores in a specified directory. These are accessed by mapping network drives from the PC.
smbd and nmbd are kicked off from inetd The smb.conf file is [global] guest account = mis valid users = mis workgroup = euabz wins server = 161.102.144.9 log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m server string = Samba Server for D1ETAP max log size = 50 security=share preserve case = yes default case = no mangle case = yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY wins support = no domain master = no local master = no preferred master = no os level = 0 [GAS] comment = D1 Etap Gas Share guest ok = yes force group = users force user = mis hide dot files = yes follow symlinks = no wide links = no path = /usr/ETAP_EX/RUN/AUDIT/GAS read only = yes I have been informed that the WINS server is to change as is the workgroup / domain. I have been asked to modify the DEC Alpha accordingly. The old WINS server was Win NT. The new one will be Win2k My question - is it just a case of changing the wins server and workgroup settings and restarting inetd (kill -HUP inetd processid) or do I have to reboot the DEC, or do I have to upgrade Samba versions. Also what would be required at the new WINS Server end ?
