Check if the PC is either NT or Win95

[Thomas.Hansen.tmh./Copenhagen at manbw.dk]

        Hi Herb,

I found out that if you set debug level to 0, there lines are omitted:

Added interface ip=150.166.97.31 bcast=150.166.97.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Server time is Thu Jun 25 08:15:55 1998 Timezone is UTC-7.0
Password: 
Domain=[ENGR] OS=[Windows NT 4.0] Server=[NT LAN Manager 4.0] security=user

Thanks for you help.


Thomas

I am running 1.9.18p8 but this has worked on all the 1.9.18 versions 
at least and maybe 1.9.17 as well. Do you have the correct codepage 
installed on the samba machine? Earlier versions of samba had a very 
limited set of code pages that it recognized. Also check the character 
set parameter. Here is the code that generates the second message.
     
void interpret_character_set(char *str) 
{
    if (strequal (str, "iso8859-1")) {
        init_iso8859_1();
    } else if (strequal (str, "iso8859-2")) {
        init_iso8859_2();
    } else if (strequal (str, "iso8859-5")) {
        init_iso8859_5();
    } else if (strequal (str, "koi8-r")) {
        init_koi8_r();
    } else {
        DEBUG(0,("unrecognized character set\n"));
    }
}
     
     
Here is the section from the smb.conf.5 man page
     
character set (G)
  This allows a smbd to map incoming characters from a DOS 850 
  Code page to either a Western European (ISO8859-1) or Eastern 
  European (ISO8859-2) code page. Normally not set, meaning no 
  filename translation is done.
     
  Default
       character set =
  Example
       character set = iso8859-1
     
     
Here is what the output should look like on an NT machine

By the way, the -P option is used to connect as a printer so you do 
not need it.
     
If you have the source installed on your machine and also have perl 5 
you may want to take a look at a script I have in packaging/SGI 
directory
called findsmb. This will list all machines that respond on a subnet 
(see the comments at the beginning for how to run).
