Hello All,

yes. i have another subnet 192.168.101.x where all my client windows 
2k/XP/2003/samba clients reside. For some reason the WINs server doesn't update 
its entries whenever a client changes IP address -- it still serves up the 
previous ip address mapping. This only seems to be a problem with samba-based 
clients; i've tried changing ip addresses on windows clients, and the WINs 
seems to detect the ip address changes immediately.


  For example, when i change the ip address for samba server serverA, from 
192.168.101.1 to 192.168.101.2, an 'nmbloookup -R -U PDC serverA' returns 
192.168.101.1, but an 'nmblookup serverA' returns 192.168.101.2.


  Upon suggestion from previous posts, the workaround now is to manually edit 
wins.dat on the WINS/PDC. While it does work well enough, i'm concerned that 
this may become a very big problem once i deploy this -- we have around 300 
servers/VMs as of writing.


  Any advice? tia

[Samba] Samba and wins

2008-02-27 Thread Dominic Iadicicco
Hello all,


 I have two different samba domains on the same subnet.  Both have there
own samba PDC. We'll call them staff and public.  The subnet is a
172.16.12.0 subnet.  Both PDC are acting as wins servers for there own
domain. This works fine so far.  I want to be able to sync the staff
browse list with the public browse list.  I put Remote browse sync = (IP
address of the public server)  option on the staff PDC and restarted
samba on that machine.  How do I know if it is really doing anything? 
When I ping a machine on the other domain it still doing it via
broadcasting and when I look at the nmbd.log file of the staff domain
controller I see nothing about a browse sync.   Could someone point me in
the right direction as to where I should look next.  If you want more
info please don't hesitate to ask.

[Samba] Samba as WINS

Can Samba act as the WINS server in a Win2003 Domain? If so is it a good 
idea?

Yes. Just specify wins support = yes in smb.conf and configure your 
windows systems to use this samba wins server.



If so is it a good idea?


I don't know really, but I don't know why you think it could be bad.

[Samba] Samba and Wins (winbind) problem on clients

2007-10-09 Thread Steve Scanavarro
Hello everyone!

I'm facing some problems here, that maybe someone faced the same and could
help me.

I have a samba server (domain name: SMBDOM) that is working as a wins server
too. This server has 2 interfaces, 192.168.1.1 and 10.1.1.1.

My client's network is 192.168.1.x *BUT* when I put the Windows 98 clients
on the Domain (only 98, in XP is OK), the netbios name/ip of my samba is
SMBDOM - 10.1.1.1, when the correct would be SMBDOM 192.168.1.1 .

I'm correcting the problem by editing the c:\windows\lmhosts file, but the
problem is on server, isn't it?

My wins server (nmbd) is sending the wrong ip (10.1.1.1) instead of the
right one (192.168.1.1) to the clients.

The interfaces and bind interfaces only directive are setted up to my
192.168.1.1 interface, but it's not working as well.

Well, that's it, thanks in advance for any help.

Best,

Steve

Hello,

Quick answer:

If your PDC is the only wins server then in your smb.conf put

wins support = yes

if there's other machine acting as a wins server:

wins server = ip address

Long and very detailed answer in the 'Samba HOWTO' of http://www.samba.org

[Samba] Samba and WINS

2004-06-10 Thread Phill Harvey-Smith
Hi there,

We are using Samba 2.2.5 as a WINS server within my department, which is 
spread accross several subnets. This works most of the time, however if for
some reason the samba server is down for an extended period, then the master 
browsers on the subnets other than it's subnet lose contact with it and have 
to be re-booted, to re-gain contact and therefore for all machines to be 
visible to each other.

Is it possible to have another machine that would be a backup WINS server, 
also running samba so that network browsing would continue to work as long 
as one of the machines was up ?

Thanks,

Phill.
