Re: SAMBA

[Erich Schroeder <erich@museum.state.il.us>]

Hi,
  Have you tried putting an lmhosts file on the one client? There is an
lmhosts.sam file that you can rename to just plain lmhosts, and then edit
to map the ip to the server name. Sometimes this has helped me...

  ON the downside, our unix samba servers are often not imediately visible
to some of the versions of windows.
