Running v3.0.2a-SUSE, joined to AD, all clients are XP.SP2 When smb.conf has "smb ports = 139", then %L is populated with the appropriate netbios alias name as selected by the end user, and everything works as expected.
When "smb ports = 445" or is not specified, then %L is populated with the host name instead of the alias name. Is there a code patch for %L or an undocumented %parm to use instead to get the alias name as selected by the client (not the hosting server name)?? The reason I ask is because Netbios is still responding to the alias name, and an Ethereal sniff of simple traffic "Net View \\samba-alias" (after an NBTstat - R) when "smb ports = 445" seems to show the alias name still being used back & forth to the Samba box, and Samba itself is resolving the alias name (I don't have Disable Netbios=yes). Therefore, isn't there some way for Samba to internally pick this up and populate %L correctly?
