|
|
lmhosts \- The Samba NetBIOS hosts file
|
|
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
|
|
.PP
|
|
lmhosts
|
|
is the
|
|
\fBsamba\fR(7)
|
|
NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file\&.
|
|
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
.PP
|
|
This file is part of the
|
|
\fBsamba\fR(7)
|
|
suite\&.
|
|
.PP
|
|
lmhosts
|
|
is the
|
|
\fISamba \fR
|
|
NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file\&. It is very similar to the
|
|
/etc/hosts
|
|
file format, except that the hostname component must correspond to the NetBIOS naming format\&.
|
|
.SH "FILE FORMAT"
|
|
.PP
|
|
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 \*(Aq#\*(Aq is ignored\&. Each line in the lmhosts file contains the following information:
|
|
.RS
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS 4
|
|
.ie n \{\
|
|
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
|
|
.\}
|
|
.el \{\
|
|
.sp -1
|
|
.IP \(bu 2.3
|
|
.\}
|
|
IP Address \- in dotted decimal format\&.
|
|
.RE
|
|
.sp
|
|
.RS 4
|
|
.ie n \{\
|
|
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
|
|
.\}
|
|
.el \{\
|
|
.sp -1
|
|
.IP \(bu 2.3
|
|
.\}
|
|
NetBIOS Name \- This name format is a maximum fifteen character host name, with an optional trailing \*(Aq#\*(Aq character followed by the NetBIOS name type as two hexadecimal digits\&.
|
|
.sp
|
|
If the trailing \*(Aq#\*(Aq 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\&.
|
|

An example follows:

.if n \{\

|

192\&.9\&.200\&.1 TESTPC
|
|
192\&.9\&.200\&.20 NTSERVER#20
|
|
192\&.9\&.200\&.21 SAMBASERVER
|
|
.fi
|
|
.if n \{\
|
|
.RE
|
|
.\}
|
|
.PP
|
|
Contains three IP to NetBIOS name mappings\&. The first and third will be returned for any queries for the names "TESTPC" and "SAMBASERVER" respectively, whatever the type component of the NetBIOS name requested\&.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The second mapping will be returned only when the "0x20" name type for a name "NTSERVER" is queried\&. Any other name type will not be resolved\&.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The default location of the
|
|
lmhosts
|
|
file is in the same directory as the
|
|
\fBsmb.conf\fR(5)
|
|
file\&.
|
|
.SH "FILES"
|
|
.PP
|
|
lmhosts is loaded from the configuration directory\&. This is usually
|
|
/etc/samba
|
|
or
|
|
/usr/local/samba/lib\&.
|
|
.SH "VERSION"
|
|
.PP
|
|
This man page is part of version 4\&.16\&.4 of the Samba suite\&.
|
|
.SH "SEE ALSO"
|
