Hello,
I am having problems getting nmbd to work as a WINS
server. nmblookup fails, as lookups from a PC.
If I turn the debugging way up, in the log.nmb, I see:
[1999/12/20 18:55:26, 4] libsmb/nmblib.c:debug_nmb_packet(109)

This is a result of doing:
nslooup -U usagi yoshiko
Usagi is the samba server. It looks link nmb is never trying to lookup
the host. The global samba.conf parameter are:
[global]
workgroup = TIBCO-TKY
server string = Usagi Samba Server
update encrypted = Yes
log level = 9
log file = /local/samba/var/log.%m
name resolve order = host wins bcast
os level = 66
preferred master = Yes
wins proxy = Yes
wins support = Yes
unix realname = Yes
I am using Samba 2.0.6 on Solaris 2.6. Previously I was using 1.9.16p2
on SunOS 4.1.4. This suddenly started failing in a rather strange way,
after applying y2k patches to the OS. Sometimes lookups would work OK,
othertimes I would get back an IP of 0.0.1.16 or some such. Not sure
why that is either. I wanted to move away from SunOS anyway, so I'm
not to worried about that problem.
Thanks,
Andy
