Hello All,
I am having trouble with the WinNT name resolution of a Linux box
running Samba. It appears that NETBIOS is resolving the name itself but
doensn't know how to get to the resource. If I cahnge the NETBIOS
name of the Samba server to something with more than 8 characters
everything works fine. This work around seems like a bad idea since the
SMB NETBIOS name is different than the DNS name of the Linux box.
WinNT resolves the name of a Solaris-based Samba server without such
problems.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated!
