It +is very similar to the <strong>/etc/hosts</strong> file format, except that the +hostname component must correspond to the NetBIOS naming format. +<p><br><a name="FILEFORMAT"></a> +<h2>FILE FORMAT</h2> + +<p><br>It is an ASCII file containing one line for NetBIOS name. The two +fields on each line are separated from each other by white space. Any +entry beginning with # is ignored. Each line in the lmhosts file +contains the following information : +<p><br><ul> +<p><br><li > <strong>IP Address</strong> - in dotted decimal format. +<p><br><li > <strong>NetBIOS Name</strong> - This name format is a maximum fifteen +character host name, with an optional trailing <code>'#'</code> character +followed by the NetBIOS name type as two hexadecimal digits. +<p><br>If the trailing <code>'#'</code> is omitted then the given IP address will be +returned for all names that match the given name, whatever the NetBIOS +name type in the lookup. +<p><br></ul> +<p><br>An example follows : +<p><br><pre> + + +# +# Sample Samba lmhosts file. +# +192.9.200.1 TESTPC +192.9.200.20 NTSERVER#20 +192.9.200.21 SAMBASERVER + +</pre> + +<p><br>Contains three IP to NetBIOS name mappings. The first and third will +be returned for any queries for the names <code>"TESTPC"</code> and +<code>"SAMBASERVER"</code> respectively, whatever the type component of the +NetBIOS name requested. +<p><br>The second mapping will be returned only when the <code>"0x20"</code> name type +for a name <code>"NTSERVER"</code> is queried. Any other name type will not be +resolved. +<p><br>The default location of the <strong>lmhosts</strong> file is in the same directory +as the <a href="smb.conf.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a> file. +<p><br><a name="VERSION"></a> +<h2>VERSION</h2> + +<p><br>This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite. +<p><br><a name="SEEALSO"></a> +<h2>SEE ALSO</h2> + +<p><br><a href="smb.conf.5.html#nameresolveorder"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a>, +<a href="smbclient.1.html#minusR"><strong>smbclient (1)</strong></a>, +<a href="smbpasswd.8.html#minusR"><strong>smbpasswd (8)</strong></a>, <a href="samba.7.html"><strong>samba (7)</strong></a>. +<p><br><a name="AUTHOR"></a> +<h2>AUTHOR</h2> + +<p><br>The original Samba software and related utilities were created by +Andrew Tridgell (samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au).

The man page +sources were converted to YODL format (another excellent piece of Open +Source software) and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy +Allison, <a href="mailto:samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au"><em>samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au</em></a>. +<p><br>See <a href="samba.7.html"><strong>samba (7)</strong></a> to find out how to get a full +list of contributors and details on how to submit bug reports, +comments etc. +</body> +</html> |
