It + is very similar to the /etc/hosts file + format, except that the hostname component must correspond + to the NetBIOS naming format. + + + + FILE FORMAT + 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: + + + IP Address - in dotted decimal format. + + + NetBIOS Name - This name format is a + maximum fifteen character host name, with an optional + trailing '#' character followed by the NetBIOS name type + as two hexadecimal digits. + + If the trailing '#' 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. + + + + An example follows: + +# +# Sample Samba lmhosts file. +# +192.9.200.1 TESTPC +192.9.200.20 NTSERVER#20 +192.9.200.21 SAMBASERVER + + + + Contains three IP to NetBIOS name mappings. The first + and third will be returned for any queries for the names "TESTPC" + and "SAMBASERVER" respectively, whatever the type component of + the NetBIOS name requested. + + The second mapping will be returned only when the "0x20" name + type for a name "NTSERVER" is queried. Any other name type will not + be resolved. + + The default location of the lmhosts file + is in the same directory as the smb.conf + 5 file. + + + + + FILES + + lmhosts is loaded from the configuration directory. This is + usually /etc/samba or /usr/local/samba/lib. + + + + + VERSION + + This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite. + + + + SEE ALSO + + smbclient1 + , smb.conf5 + , and smbpasswd + 8 + + + + + AUTHOR + + The original Samba software and related utilities + were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed + by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar + to the way the Linux kernel is developed. + + The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. + The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another + excellent piece of Open Source software, available at + + ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/) and updated for the Samba 2.0 + release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for + Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook + XML 4.2 was done by Alexander Bokovoy. + + + -- cgit
