and map them to IP addresses in a network using NetBIOS over TCP/IP
queries. The options allow the name queries to be directed at a
particular IP broadcast area or to a particular machine. All queries
are done over UDP.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><h2>OPTIONS</h2><div class="variablelist"><dl><dt><span class="term">-M</span></dt><dd><p>Searches for a master browser by looking
up the NetBIOS name <i class="replaceable"><tt>name</tt></i> with a
type of <tt class="constant">0x1d</tt>. If <i class="replaceable"><tt>

<tt class="constant">__MSBROWSE__</tt>. Please note that in order to
use the name "-", you need to make sure "-" isn't parsed as an
argument, e.g. use :
<b class="userinput"><tt>nmblookup -M -- -</tt></b>.</p></dd><dt><span class="term">-R</span></dt><dd><p>Set the recursion desired bit in the packet
to do a recursive lookup. This is used when sending a name
query to a machine running a WINS server and the user wishes
to query the names in the WINS server. If this bit is unset
the normal (broadcast responding) NetBIOS processing code
on a machine is used instead. See RFC1001, RFC1002 for details.

query returns the NetBIOS names registered by a host.

datagrams. The reason for this option is a bug in Windows 95
where it ignores the source port of the requesting packet
and only replies to UDP port 137. Unfortunately, on most UNIX
systems root privilege is needed to bind to this port, and
in addition, if the <a href="nmbd.8.html"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">nmbd</span>(8)</span></a> daemon is running on this machine it also binds to this port.

an IP Address and do a node status query on this address.</p></dd><dt><span class="term">-n <primary NetBIOS name></span></dt><dd><p>This option allows you to override
the NetBIOS name that Samba uses for itself. This is identical
to setting the <a class="indexterm" name="id2796756"></a><i class="parameter"><tt>netbios name</tt></i> parameter in the <tt class="filename">smb.conf</tt> file.

overrides the default domain which is the domain defined in

amounts of log data, and should only be used when
investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are designed for
use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log
data, most of which is extremely cryptic.</p><p>Note that specifying this parameter here will
