Name

lmhosts — The Samba NetBIOS hosts file

Synopsis

lmhosts is the Samba(7) NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file.

DESCRIPTION

This file is part of the Samba(7) suite.

lmhosts is the Samba - NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file. 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.

VERSION

This man page is correct for version 3.0 of the Samba suite.

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.
