To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi, I'm using a small network with one FreeBSD server and one Win2k Pro client. I wanted to know if it is possible to be able to browse via the network neigborhood to see my unix server. Because I can't get it to work. Do I need Win2k server edition? If I do: c:> net view /domain:my_domain_name, I didn't see my server in there, nor do I when I go thru the network neigborhood in windows. I can only access it when I do a "find computer". It found it in my_domain_name (that is, the right domain). Does somebody did it with win2k Pro? Here is some of my configuration: -Try both security = domain (or user) -wins support = yes -domain master = no -workgroup = my_domain_name -netbios name = my_unix_server_name -Try both os level = 0 (or 65) local master = no (or yes) preferred server = no (or yes) domain logons = no (or yes) -encrypted password = yes Note: this two commands work correctly. c:>net view \\server_name and c:>net use * \\server_name\homes Thanks Eric __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
