In smb.conf I've added "netbios name = SAMBA", and I've added SAMBA to
/etc/samba/lmhosts, but when I run smbclient I get this sort of response:
vclarke at wild:~> smbclient //samba/art -R lmhosts
added interface ip=127.0.0.1 bcast=127.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0
added interface ip=172.17.1.3 bcast=172.17.255.255 nmask=255.255.0.0 <<
Yes, I've fiddled a bit
session request to SAMBA failed (Called name not present)
Password:
Domain=[DOMAIN1] OS=[Windows NT 4.0] Server=[NT LAN Manager 4.0]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME
vclarke at wild:~> smbclient //samba/art -R lmhosts -M SAMBA
added interface ip=127.0.0.1 bcast=127.255.255.255 nmask=255.0.0.0
added interface ip=172.17.1.3 bcast=172.17.255.255 nmask=255.255.0.0
session request failed
I can see how all this might be related to the netmask oddness but for the
life of me I can't put my finger on the connection.. time to speak to my
friendly DNS guru I think.
In case it isn't: how do I get Samba to tell me what it thinks it *should*
be hearing?
I'm also curious as to why my own Win2K machine can see the shares
perfectly, but nobody else's can (network path not found) - would this be
because I'm the only person with a proper UNIX account on the server and a
smbpasswd entry and so on? If so, why on earth can't I see it when I run
smbclient while logged in on the server itself?
