RE: [Samba] Samba with a Win9x network and RoadRunner
I've considered doing just that, but here's the rub...in the very rare occasion when I _do_ want/need to use W2k for something, my wife's laptop can't get to the internet. I've considered setting up ICS on the Win2k side to accomodate that, but wasn't sure how to set up ICS and was hoping to resolve the problem without going to that extreme. > -Original Message- > From: Gene Bomgardner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Sunday, September 29, 2002 8:57 AM > To: DJ Busch > Subject: RE: [Samba] Samba with a Win9x network and RoadRunner > > > > > On 29 Sep 2002 at 8:42, DJ Busch wrote: > > > I've tried setting the IP on the Linux machine manually, but > the result was > > ugly - I couldn't connect to any outside Internet services.

RE: [Samba] Samba with a Win9x network and RoadRunner
I had that problem in the beginning too... I had to manually configure the default gateway and DNS servers so that they were exactly as if I had DHCP, and then it worked.

Re: [Samba] Samba with a Win9x network and RoadRunner
I have a similar problem just posted about win98 and
samba.I think if you have applied ip
address,dns,gateway and added the server ip address in
lmhost, there is not anything more to do at the win
box.
About the second question I have ran tcpdump on my
samba server to determine how it communicate with the
clients. And I found that on establish the connection
from win98 to samba, it uses hostnames and it look to
me it also use the nic hardware address. The other way
it dont use the hw address, but the hostnames.
If this could be to any help.

[Samba] Samba with a Win9x network and RoadRunner
Hi everyone...I'm at a dead stop setting up Samba, so let me jump right into
the problem:
First, the setup: I have a RH7.3 box and a W98 laptop. The RH box also has
a W2k Pro partition. We have them on a 4-port 10base-T hub along with our
RoadRunner cable modem.
Now on to the problem: As most of you are already aware, RR uses DHCP to
assign IP addresses to client machines at boot time. This seems to be
causing Samba to have problems resolving the machine names. When I get both
machines up and running and try to connect to the laptop ("jarjar") with
"smbclient -L jarjar", I get "Connection to jarjar failed". My first
question is this: Is there something I have to enable in W98 to allow Samba
to make connections?
And my second question: Can Samba decide which hostname goes to which
computer on my home network without being able to resolve it to an IP
address? I would assume that when the machines hold master browser
elections, each is made aware of the other(s) and the IP addresses are not
necessary.
Any help anyone can provide is greatly appreciated. Every time I go to work
I have to reboot into W2k so my wife can get at the files on my hard drives.
It's annoying.
Thanks.
