2001-07-04	The big character set handling changeover!	Andrew Tridgell	1	-1/+0
	This commit gets rid of all our old codepage handling and replaces it with iconv. All internal strings in Samba are now in "unix" charset, which may be multi-byte. See internals.doc and my posting to samba-technical for a more complete explanation. (This used to be commit debb471267960e56005a741817ebd227ecfc512a)

2000-10-11	Converted to call lib/wins_srv.c:wins_srv_ip() instead of lp_wins_server()	Christopher R. Hertel	1	-4/+4
	when looking up the WINS server address. Please don't use lp_wins_server() any more! The wins_srv_ip() function has the following features: - If the WINS server was entered as a DNS name then the translation to an IP address will already have taken place. We used to do this every time a call to the WINS server was made. Ick. - The return value of wins_srv_ip() is a struct in_addr. Ready to go. - When WINS failover is fully implemented, you'll be able to enter a colon- separated list of WINS servers via the WINS SERVER parameter. Using lp_wins_server() directly will fail if this syntax is used. Chris -)----- (This used to be commit 56be7c2a49a8a918318a70843fff4e89ec10d0d3)

2000-07-19	Instead of handing back a string (which might be a DNS name or an IP	Christopher R. Hertel	1	-4/+2
	string), the wins_srv module now hands back a struct in_addr when it's called. It caches the IP address once it has been looked up. The IP is cleared (and must be looked up again) if the 'wins server' parameter is reread, or if the node is marked 'dead'. A dead node will not be re-tried for 10 minutes (per a #define in wins_srv.c). As it was, the code was reading the WINS server name or IP directly from lp_wins_server. That's okay, except that if the value was expressed as a name, then a DNS lookup would be done every time the client wanted to talk to the server. I still need to work out the implications of failover regarding the 'unicast subnet' list. Chris -)----- (This used to be commit 73aa188320fd3bf10b5dfc057323f40aff2c13bd)
2000-07-19	First cut toward adding WINS server failover.	Christopher R. Hertel	1	-1/+1
	Note: failover doesn't actually work yet! It's just that the code I'm adding provides all of the pieces necessary. I do have one big question. Something that I'll have to ask Jeremy, I'm thinkin'. In nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c the IP of the WINS server is used to set up the Unicast subnet. ...so what happens if the WINS server changes? My guess is either: a) nothing. b) I'd have to change the unicast subnet entry whenever the WINS server changes. Urq. BTW, the lp_wins_server() function no longer returns the WINS server name or IP. It returns the list of WINS servers entered in smb.conf. To get the currently 'live' WINS server, use the wins_srv() function. Fun, eh?

2000-01-07	remove scope parameter here too	Andrew Tridgell	1	-3/+3

1999-12-17	added basic nsswitch support - this allows you to use a "wins" entry	Andrew Tridgell	1	-0/+129
	in a /etc/nsswitch.conf hosts line. Only tested on RH6.1, but should work on a broad range of Linux distributions. It could probably be made to work with Solaris pretty easily. It does not build by default. Build it with "make nsswitch" (This used to be commit 4058eb5bffeec539f71786580376419ea5749351)
