Is this actually in our docs ? If so, we need to fix that. I'm pretty sure that won't work. Use of raw SMB over TCP/IP (No NetBIOS layer) can be done only with Active Directory domains. Samba is not an Active Directory Domain Controller: ergo, you can not run Samba as a domain controller and at the same time NOT use NetBIOS. I am rectifying the documentation so as to remove all doubt. Also, WINS and NetBIOS node-type are features of running NetBIOS - the documentation was just plain crazy - it was wrong and misleading and is being fixed. - John T. -- John H Terpstra Samba-Team Member Phone: +1 (650) 580-8668 Author: The Official Samba-3 HOWTO Reference Guide, ISBN: 0131453556 Samba-3 by Example, ISBN: 0131472216 Hardening Linux, ISBN: 0072254971 OpenLDAP by Example, ISBN: 0131488732 Other books in production. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

So now I appoint you as my quality control manager - but if it is not right you must supply the patches! :) i had almost fallen into the same pit... i investigated about the necessaey SRV records, and only their profound ugliness and a pressing deadline made me fall back to giving the clients their WINS server back (without which they would not find the dc...) I have just committed updates to the chapter on Network Browsing. These should appear in the published documentation on all major mirror sites within 24 hours. I'd appreciate fixes, updates, panic attacks, flogging, and public humiliation to be spontaneous. Don't hold back! If I hear nothing I will assume that my modifications were perfect and will immediately withdraw rights to all future complaining about the HOWTO.

[Samba] Disabling NETBIOS over TCP/IP
Hi, i'm trying to configure XP clients to communicate with Samba3 PDC without NETBIOS. I've disabled NETBIOS over TCP/IP on XP clients and on Samba3 server. I also created neccessary DNS records as described in Samba-HOWTO-Collection but yet without success. I've created DNS SRV entry _ldap._tcp.pdc._msdcs.domainame.com as described in Samba-HOWTO but this is what happends: 1. XP client sends DNS query for entry _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainame.com and not for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainame.com (note the difference .dc instead of .pdc) and fails because of missing DNS entry 2. I added SRV entry for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainame.com, now XP finds the Samba domain controller but tries to contact LDAP server on it using UDP protocol and fails again. Obviously, XP expects domain controller name returned by SRV .dc entry to belong to AD Domain controller and not NT4 style one and it never even tries to query for .pdc record. Did anybody get this to work? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
