Samba does not need a DNS server. You need a "/etc/hosts" file. My "hosts" file: 127.0.0.1 localhost.utp.net localhost 192.168.222.10 parmenides.utp.net parmenides 192.168.222.254 socrates.utp.net socrates 192.168.222.33 epicuris.utp.net epicuris 192.168.222.20 heraclitus.utp.net heraclitus 192.168.222.88 kuppo.utp.net kuppo socrates is a dual-boot Linux/Win95 sytem. kuppo is a MS-DOS machine running the freely available Microsoft Client for DOS TCP/IP software. The same file you can copy to the Windows directory of the Win95/98 machines. Last year I bought the "SAMBA Black Book" by D.Baines published by Coriolis. I find it to be an excellent resource for running Samba. Janko van Roosmalen - Holland On Sun, 27 Aug 2000, A Minkstein wrote: > I want to setup a simple DNS server so that I can run Samba.
