I have a test unit that has the following network configuration:
eth0 inet addr:10.73.0.105 Bcast:10.73.255.255 Mask:255.255.0.0
eth1 inet addr:10.111.0.1 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0
with the following routes:
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface
10.73.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
10.111.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0 0 eth1
127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo
0.0.0.0 10.73.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0
When I do a "net lookup netbiosname" from another machine on the 10.73
network (10.73.0.119) returns:
tdickson root # nmblookup netbiosname
querying netbiosname on 10.73.255.255
10.111.0.1 netbiosname<00>
However, if I change the netmask on eth1 to 255.255.0.0 it returns the
correct answer, 10.73.0.105.
It looks like nmbd is getting confused when there are overlapping
network masks.
Is this a feature, or is the network configuration I have simply not
supported?
