RE: [SQU] NetBIOS Name Problem ( urgent )

Hi,
As you said you dont need samba daemon on the proxy only it has been
installed. What is your PDC on your network? WindowsNT or Samba server? If
it is Samba, Is this on the same PC with squid?

Hi again! one more thing. If i try to associate any machine (name -> IP
address ) with nmblookup, using nmblookup -d 2 name, i get a positive
response, except for the proxy server, which is unkown. This is weird.
Here's what i have in the config.info file for SAMBA:
 
smb_conf=Location of the Samba configuration file,0
smb_passwd=Location of the Samba password file,3
samba_status_program=Full path smbstatus,0
samba_password_program=Full path to smbpasswd,0
samba_server=Full path to smbd,0
name_server=Full path to nmbd,0
swat_path=Full path to swat,3,None
dont_convert=List of Unix users not to add to the samba password list,0
sort_mode=Sort users and groups by name,1,1-Yes,0-No
 
I read that there was no need to have samba daemons running in order to use
the smb_auth for the proxy ( Squid ). So samba daemons are stopped. The
machine has been added to the PDC, as an NT Workstation or Server, as
mentioned and the smb.conf file is correct, according to the documentation i
have ( security=DOMAIN, etc.). I didn't install SAMBA, but i installed
Webmin, and configured SAMBA (smb.conf) according to what was needed. Also
one last detail, if i try to reach the proxy added to the PDC (
double-clicking on the name present in the list ), the PDC returns an error
message, saying no network path was found. Could this be the source of the
problem? If so what do i need to change in the PDC so that it recognizes the
path?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pedro,
Did you set up SAMBAPREFIX correctly on your box before run make? If
nmblookup and smbclient are on /usr/bin. you should set SAMBAPREFIX=/usr in
the Makefile..

Greetings from Istanbul,
Ilker G.
