Hi guys
It is probably a common problem but i just cannot find the solution
anywhere... Here it is :
I set up 2 server samba with WINS support to YES, they are on two
different networks. The idea is obviously to be able to browse the 2
workgroups . Pb i have is : i can see the 2 workgroups but cannot see
any of the computers inside it !!! I don t have any errors though ...
when i click on the other network workgroup, i list 0 object ...
On each wins servers i can see the list of local workstations in the
wins.dat so i presume that PC on both networks are regestering
themselves correctly.
Here is my config :
On ServerWins1
os level = 65
preferred master = Yes
local master = Yes
domain master = Yes
name resolve order = lmhosts wins dns bcast host
wins support = yes
remote browse sync=192.168.1.25
allow hosts = 192.168.1.25 127. 192.168.2.
remote announce = 192.168.2.25/CENTER.DEV
On ServerWins2
remote announce = 192.168.2.25
local master = yes
os level = 65
domain master = yes
wins support = yes
name resolve order = lmhosts wins dns bcast host
preferred master = yes
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127. 192.168.2.25
In my nmbd logs i can see "sync started " and the number of objects but
each time i have 4 objects, they seem to correspond to the number of
workgroup (there is 2 other Workgroups because two machines have a
different workgroup name it seems ... could it be a problem ?)
In browse.dat or wins.dat there is no trace of the remote workstations
except in the browse.dat where there is the lmb for each workgroup but
no other workstations.
I hope i am clear .. 'will really appreciate if someone could help with
this.
Regards
Sebastien
