Correct.

No. I said 'it appears as though' not that it 'is being' ignored.

Let me explain more....

Primary NetBIOS name is 'LEEDS'
NetBIOS aliases are 'LE-PRINTER' and 'DISTLEEDS'

I have include files defined as

smb.conf.leeds

[netlogon]
.....

[fax]
....


smb.conf.le-printer

[Services]
....

[CableSales]
.....

smb.conf.distleeds

[os]
....

Now,

If I do a 'net view \\leeds' all is well and shows me the shares available
in the smb.conf.leeds file.

If I do a 'net view \\le-printer' it should show only the ones defined in
smb.conf.le-printer, but doesn't show any. It only shows the same shares
defined in smb.conf.leeds.

And the same goes for 'net view \\distleeds' which shows on shares defined
in smb.conf.leeds.

Alan.
