<title>FILE FORMAT</title>
|
|
<para>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 :</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem><para>IP Address - in dotted decimal format.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem><para>NetBIOS Name - This name format is a
|
|
maximum fifteen character host name, with an optional
|
|
trailing '#' character followed by the NetBIOS name type
|
|
as two hexadecimal digits.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the trailing '#' 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.</para>

<para>The original Samba software and related utilities
|
|
were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
|
|
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
|
|
to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>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
|
|
<ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
|
|
ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
|
|
release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
|
|
Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter</para>
