CLASS="CONSTANT"

			Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file. If the 
			line in lmhosts has no name type attached to the 
			NetBIOS name 
			(see the <A
HREF="lmhosts.5.html"
TARGET="_top"
>lmhosts(5)</A
>
			for details) then any name type matches for lookup.
			</P
></LI
><LI
><P
><TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>host</TT
> : 
			Do a standard host name to IP address resolution, using
			the system <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/etc/hosts</TT
>, NIS, or DNS
			lookups. This method of name resolution is operating 
			system dependent, for instance on IRIX or Solaris this 
			may be controlled by the <TT
CLASS="FILENAME"
>/etc/nsswitch.conf
			</TT
> file).  Note that this method is only used 
			if the NetBIOS name type being queried is the 0x20 
			(server) name type, otherwise it is ignored.
			</P
></LI
><LI
><P
><TT
CLASS="CONSTANT"
>wins</TT
> : 
			Query a name with the IP address listed in the 
			<TT
CLASS="PARAMETER"

>wins server</I

> parameter.  If no 
			WINS server has been specified this method will be 
			ignored.

>bcast</TT
> : 
			Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces 
			listed in the <TT
CLASS="PARAMETER"

			parameter. This is the least reliable of the name 
			resolution methods as it depends on the target host 
			being on a locally connected subnet.
