Hello,
I'm trying to get a samba4 server to show up while "network browsing"
on a Vista client, but with no success. I've scoured the web and tried
many things, but most documentation is for samba3. I can however mount
the samba4 share using it's UNC path, but I really want netbios name
resolution to work.
With samba 3.0.28, as soon as I start smbd and nmbd, I can view my
samba server through Network Browsing.
Does Samba4 support name resolution?
-If so, how would one configure samba4 to do so?
-If not, what I really want is SMB2 support. How much effort would it
take to backport smb2 to samba 3.2? Would the best approach be to
incorporate the smb_server/smb2 code into samba3/smbd code, or to
completely replace the samba3/smbd code with the samba4/smbd and
samba4/smb_server code?
I'm not really sure what else to try so any suggestions are greatly
appreciated.
Thanks, Tim
Here is my setup
----------------------
I checked out Samba_4_0 build 26646. I'm using parallels with vista as
one virtual machine and ubuntu 7.04 as another virtual machine. Both
are on the same subnet. The workgroup name on the vista box is
WORKGROUP.
From looking at ethereal output on the vista box, it looks like
samba4 isn't broadcasting itself as a server, so the vista client
isn't seen the samba, if that makes any sense.
samb3 smb.conf configuration file:
[globals]
netbios name = TIM-DESKTOP
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = share
domain master = yes
wins support = yes
public = yes
browseable = yes
[public]
path = /home/tim/public
browseable = yes
public = yes
read only = no
samba4 smb.conf:
[globals]
netbios name = TIM-DESKTOP
workgroup = WORKGROUP
realm = WORKGROUP
server role = domain controller
security = share
server max protocol = smb2
wins support = yes
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
dcerpc endpoint servers = epmapper samr lsarpc netlogon rpcecho
lanman auth=yes
use spnego = yes
name resolve order = wins lmhosts hosts bcast
browseable = yes
auto services = yes
[netlogon]
path = /root/svnsamba/var/locks/sysvol/workgroup/scripts
read only = no
[sysvol]
path = /root/svnsamba/var/locks/sysvol
read only = no
[public]
path = /home/tim/public
browseable = yes
read only = no
the provsioning step
$./setup/provision --realm=WORKGROUP --adminpass=wyo123 --
domain=WORKGROUP --server-role='domain controller'
