RE: smbclient/windows 2K settings?

You have to run in this form to work properly and have in mind that the
service you are connecting to have the same name/password in the unix box,
and in w2k

ie.

[changos@localhost /]$ smbclient //192.168.222.208/documents -I
192.168.222.208 

added interface ip=192.168.222.31 bcast=192.168.222.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
session request to 192.168.222.208 failed (Called name not present)
session request to 192 failed (Called name not present)
Password: 
Domain=[CHAZ_DOMAIN] OS=[Windows 5.0] Server=[Windows 2000 LAN Manager]
smb: \> 


user changos MUST exist with the same pass (for security) in unix and w2k

Hopes it help, regards,

Asunto: smbclient/windows 2K settings?


Hi,

I am trying to get to a windows share on
a Win2K box on our network using smbclient.
When I try the machine name I get:

$ smbclient //machinename/username
added interface ip=myip bcast=mybcast nmask=mynmask
Connection to morpheus failed

where of course the ip, bcast and nmask are valid numbers,
i just hid them for security sake (??!! i'm a newbie, i don't
know if this is neccessary.)

then if i try using the IP address directly I get

$ smbclient //123.456.789.876/username
added interface ip=myip bcast=mybcast nmask=mynmask
session request to 123.456.789.876 failed (Called name not present)
session request to 123 failed (Called name not present)
Password:

and I can successfully log in. For the life of me I can't
figure out what is happening on the win2k end that won't
let me say the machine name directly.

Help?

Thanks
jgw
