Hi, I've posted before about the problem with WINS and the INet~Services name IIS uses. (http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2005-August/110189.html)
The problem I get is when any host running IIS tries to renew its names with the Samba WINS server (e.g. after the default 5-day period) the renewal fails for *all* names for the server. As I understand it the problem is with Samba's WINS server implementation not handling the mixed case Windows uses for the "Inet~Services#1c" name. (Am I correct in thinking all other NetBIOS names are upper case only?). So I was wondering, Samba Team, if this is going to be handled at some point? Should I put it in Bugzilla? I realise the general advice is to use a Microsoft WINS server in this kind of scenario but I like Samba, everything else works fine for me. (Disclaimer: I'm still running Samba 3.0.4 - as I said everything else works great - but I've looked out for a fix for this and I don't think it's been done to date). All the best, Leon... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
