I seem to have an otherwise working wins server smbclient -L //lespaul added interface ip=192.168.0.56 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Got a positive name query response from 192.168.0.13 ( 192.168.0.62 ) but with smbclient -M I get echo "hello" |smbclient -M lespaul added interface ip=192.168.0.56 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Cannot resolve name lespaul#0x3 It does seem to be winxp related as in the following >smbclient -M strider added interface ip=192.168.0.56 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Got a positive name query response from 192.168.0.13 ( 192.168.0.57 ) Connected.

And if I try to give an explicit ip address: > smbclient -M LESPAUL -I 192.168.0.62 added interface ip=192.168.0.56 bcast=192.168.0.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 session request failed > ping 192.168.0.62 PING 192.168.0.62 (192.168.0.62): 56 octets data 64 octets from 192.168.0.62: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=3.0 ms 64 octets from 192.168.0.62: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=3.9 ms --- 192.168.0.62 ping statistics --- 2 packets transmitted, 2 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 3.0/3.4/3.9 ms So how do I need to fix my wins server? Obviously I'm just looking for things I should try first. Not for anyone to use their well-worn crystal balls to spot a flaw in my smb.conf. Which I haven't attached. Or to figure out I've got a bad nic or cable. But if anyone has a NEW crystal ball and can tell me it's a nic or cable, well THAT would be cool... mark -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
