manpage(lmhosts htmlcommand((5)))(5)(23 Oct 1998)(Samba)(SAMBA)
label(NAME)
manpagename(lmhosts)(The Samba NetBIOS hosts file)
label(SYNOPSIS)
manpagesynopsis()
lmhosts is the bf(Samba) NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file.
label(DESCRIPTION)
manpagedescription()
This file is part of the bf(Samba) suite.
bf(lmhosts) is the bf(Samba) NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file. It
is very similar to the bf(/etc/hosts) file format, except that the
hostname component must correspond to the NetBIOS naming format.
label(FILEFORMAT)
manpagesection(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 :
startit()
it() bf(IP Address) - in dotted decimal format.
it() bf(NetBIOS Name) - This name format is a maximum fifteen
character host name, with an optional trailing tt('#') character
followed by the NetBIOS name type as two hexadecimal digits.
If the trailing tt('#') 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.
endit()
An example follows :
# nl()
# Sample Samba lmhosts file. nl()
# nl()
192.9.200.1 TESTPC nl()
192.9.200.20 NTSERVER#20 nl()
192.9.200.21 SAMBASERVER nl()
Contains three IP to NetBIOS name mappings. The first and third will
be returned for any queries for the names tt("TESTPC") and
tt("SAMBASERVER") respectively, whatever the type component of the
NetBIOS name requested.
The second mapping will be returned only when the tt("0x20") name type
for a name tt("NTSERVER") is queried. Any other name type will not be
resolved.
The default location of the bf(lmhosts) file is in the same directory
as the url(bf(smb.conf))(smb.conf.html) file.
label(VERSION)
manpagesection(VERSION)
This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite.
label(SEEALSO)
manpageseealso()
url(bf(smb.conf (5)))(smb.conf.5.html#nameresolveorder),
url(bf(smbclient (1)))(smbclient.1.html#minusR),
url(bf(smbpasswd (8)))(smbpasswd.8.html#minusR), url(bf(samba (7)))(samba.7.html).
label(AUTHOR)
manpageauthor()
The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
Andrew Tridgell email(samba@samba.org). 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
url(bf(ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/))(ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/))
and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy Allison.
email(samba@samba.org).

list of contributors and details on how to submit bug reports,
comments etc.
