Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Okay, I've tried to the best of my ability to follow the docs exactly on this one, but for some reason, nmbd refuses to do WINS. The situation: A BSD box and a win95 box, bsd box with Samba, connected via thin ether. Win95 box set with WINS of freebsd box (192.168.1.1) All IPs statically assigned. For the record, I can connect to the shared resource using net use J: \\192.168.1.1\home I can do an smblookup on all machines in the local net (from the bsd box), and it correctly gives the winbox's ip (although it gives 127.0.0.1 for the local host, not 192.168.1.1, which I am unsure of...A shame I can't get another unix system to query it) And I can use explorer and telnet, etc fine on the winbox to get to the outside world, so I know the network is doing its job. I thought for a while that maybe my guest user was bad, so I changed it to my own login (it's also been tried as nobody and danm). The docs did not say what kind of password, permissions, or shell to have for this user (or so grep would make it appear). Help is much appreciated, as I've combed the archives already and not found this info yet...
