Can't connect via IP Address

[Tom Horan]

I can connect fine by IP to my Samba box (RH7.2 and Samba 2.2.0).

Try adding the IP in as an addition netbios name - I forget the parameter
for this though....

Hi All,

i can't connect to my Suse-6.3, Samba 2.0.6 NT-Domain with the use of
IP-Addresses. Using Netbios Names works fine and the nmbd log the name
request. Trying the same with the correct IP from Windows 98se (net view
\\192.168.80.1 instead of net vie \\elrond) rsult in a "host not found"
error message. Testing the same with ping or tracert works fine.

After browsing the faq and textdocs i'm still confused where to get more
info or help. Hopefully this is the right place.

greets

Tom
