Hi, SaMBa gurus!
Sorry, if it a dumb question, but
I  had  install the samba 1.9.18p1 on my BSDi2.0.1 box (previous
version was 17p4 and it work fine) and when I try to connect to Win95
or WinNT

smbclient \\\\HostA\\ServiceB <my password>

it say me next:

Added interface ip=xxx.yy.zz.aa bcast=xxx.yy.zz.bb nmask=255.255.255.240
Get_Hostbyname: Unknown host HOSTA.

but  HostA  was online in this local LAN and service ServiceB as
share  was presentable.
Any ideas?
If it need then that my smb.conf
----------------------------begin smb.conf---------------------
[global]
	announce version = 4.0
	character set = ISO8859-1
	deadtime = 3
	debuglevel = 2

	dns proxy = no
	encrypt passwords = yes
	hide files = /.*/*.core/

	log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.smb
	lpq cache time = 5

	prefered master = yes
	printing = bsd
	printcap name = /usr/local/samba/lib/printcap
	security = user

	smbrun = /usr/local/samba/bin/smbrun
	syslog = 0
	unix realname = yes
	workgroup = PRCNIT
	allow hosts = xxx.yy.zz.
----------------------end smb.conf-----------------------------

Thanx for advance.

Regards.
