to the NetBIOS naming format.</p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><h2>FILE FORMAT</h2><p>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:</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>IP Address - in dotted decimal format.</p></li><li><p>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.</p><p>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.</p></li></ul></div><p>An example follows:</p><pre class="programlisting">

The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another
excellent piece of Open Source software, available at
<a href="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/" target="_top">
ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</a>) and updated for the Samba 2.0
release by Jeremy Allison. The conversion to DocBook for
Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook
XML 4.2 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.</p></div></div></body></html>
