Re: [Samba] samba 3.2.4 WINs problem

[Samba] Samba and wins
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? Thanks Kevin smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

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

[Samba] Samba and WINS
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 ?
