Yes. It's assigned by DHCP. dhcpd on the 192.168.1.x network:

option netbios-name-servers                     192.168.1.5;


What's your netbios-node-type set to in your dhcpd.conf file? My server
is setup on another subnet, and I don't have problems. My value is set
to 4, but you may want to try 8.

David,

I have no value set and didn't know about this parameter. I found it in the dhcp-options man page:

       option netbios-node-type uint8;

The NetBIOS node type option allows NetBIOS over TCP/IP clients which are configurable to be configured as described in RFC 1001/1002. The value is specified as a single octet which identi-
          fies the client type.

          Possible node types are:

          1    B-node: Broadcast - no WINS

          2    P-node: Peer - WINS only

          4    M-node: Mixed - broadcast, then WINS

          8    H-node: Hybrid - WINS, then broadcast


Do you know what the default value is?

R.
