Update of /data/cvs/samba/source/include
In directory samba:/tmp/cvs-serv19567/include
Modified Files:
proto.h
Log Message:
First cut toward adding WINS server failover.
*Note: failover doesn't actually work yet!* It's just that the code I'm
adding provides all of the pieces necessary.
I do have one big question. Something that I'll have to ask Jeremy, I'm
thinkin'. In nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c the IP of the WINS server is used to
set up the Unicast subnet.
...so what happens if the WINS server changes?
My guess is either:
a) nothing.
b) I'd have to change the unicast subnet entry whenever the WINS server
changes.
Urq.
BTW, the lp_wins_server() function no longer returns the WINS server name
or IP. It returns the list of WINS servers entered in smb.conf. To get
the currently 'live' WINS server, use the wins_srv() function.
Fun, eh?
