[Samba] smbclient and netbios disabled question

[Frederic Descamps]

some update.

I have now 3 nodes :

MATISSE (with no netbios, nmbd not running)
PDC (the PDC)
LINCLIENT (domain member like matisse but having netbios enabled)

on LINCLIENT a smbclient -L matisse -W linuxvirt with authentication
fails also with : NT_STATUS_NO_LOGON_SERVERS
