Thread: Can only ping windows box by full domain name
we in process of converting backup file server in our domain windows platform ubuntu 11.10 samba platform. 1 of problems running being able access windows servers samba server name.
can ping samba box anywhere in domain, samba box unable ping of windows servers, just name.
example of "just name":
samba box can ping windows servers ip address, when comes pinging windows servers name have use qualified domain name. (ds1 dataserver1)
ping ds1.domain.local works
ping ds1 not work
/etc/samba/smb.conf - global settings
[global]
netbios name = drs0
workgroup = ourdomain
server string = %h server
wins server = 10.1.1.233
dns proxy = no
/etc/resolv.conf
domain ourdomain
search ourdomain.local
nameserver 10.1.1.247
nameserver 10.1.1.250
ideas?
look @ /etc/hosts file. use line localhost model append many hostnames file need to.
more information type "man hosts" in terminal.
