Post #53,595 by drewk 9/27/02 4:02:48 PM Reply	Your looking at it backwards I'm not trying to see the Linux box from the Windows box. I'm trying to see the Windows box from the Linux box. I don't care if nothing can see the Linux box. So it doesn't need to register with the WINS server. It needs to be able to read from the WINS server to get the IP of the Windows box. === Microsoft offers them the one thing most business people will pay any price for - the ability to say "we had no choice - everyone's doing it that way." -- [link\|http://z.iwethey.org/forums/render/content/show?contentid=38978\|Andrew Grygus]
Post #53,596 by deSitter 9/27/02 4:17:54 PM Reply	Re: Your looking at it backwards It's still the same problem - LAN Manager is basically peer-to-peer. You need access to the WINS server to see Windows machines. That's what nmbd does for you. In order to browse, you also need to have smbd running. (Historically, I'd guess that browsing etc. was added when one of the peers got promoted to a "server" and the domain model emerged, and so it runs at the application level. NetBIOS is session level in the OSI model.) Good link: [link\|http://www.neohapsis.com/resources/wins.htm\|http://www.neohapsi...ces/wins.htm] -drl

This is the same problem Scott has... reason it has never been taken care of in DDNS... is because of WINS or AD acting as WINS, and therefore SAMBA doing it's part of the PEER to PEER networking... Scott and you need, to run the daemons... to let the OTHER windows machine who your machines are... and for your machine to figure out who they are. `greg - Grand-Master Artist in IT, curley95@attbi.com -- [link\|http://www.iwethey.org/ed_curry/\|REMEMBER ED CURRY!!!] Your friendly Homeland Security Officer reminds: Hold Thumbprint to Screen for 5 seconds, we'll take the imprint, or Just continue to type on your keyboard, and we'll just sample your DNA.`
