NAME

+ lmhosts - The Samba NetBIOS hosts file +

SYNOPSIS

+ +

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

DESCRIPTION

+ +

This file is part of the Samba 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 file. +

VERSION

+ +

This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite. +

AUTHOR

+ +

The original Samba software and related utilities were created by +Andrew Tridgell (samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au). 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) and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy +Allison, samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au. +
