<h2>Samba</h2>
<h2>23 Oct 1998</h2>
<p><br><a name="NAME"></a>
<h2>NAME</h2>
lmhosts - The Samba NetBIOS hosts file
<p><br><a name="SYNOPSIS"></a>
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
<p><br>lmhosts is the <strong>Samba</strong> NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file.
<p><br><a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p><br>This file is part of the <strong>Samba</strong> suite.
<p><br>lmhosts is the <strong>Samba</strong> NetBIOS name to IP address mapping file. It
is very similar to the <strong>/etc/hosts</strong> file format, except that the
hostname component must correspond to the NetBIOS naming format.
<p><br><a name="FILEFORMAT"></a>
<h2>FILE FORMAT</h2>
<p><br>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><br><ul>
<p><br><li > <strong>IP Address</strong> - in dotted decimal format.
<p><br><li > <strong>NetBIOS Name</strong> - This name format is a maximum fifteen
character host name, with an optional trailing <code>'#'</code> character
followed by the NetBIOS name type as two hexadecimal digits.
<p><br>If the trailing <code>'#'</code> 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><br></ul>
<p><br>An example follows :
<p><br><pre>
#
# Sample Samba lmhosts file.
#
192.9.200.1 TESTPC
192.9.200.20 NTSERVER#20
192.9.200.21 SAMBASERVER
</pre>
<p><br>Contains three IP to NetBIOS name mappings. The first and third will
be returned for any queries for the names <code>"TESTPC"</code> and
<code>"SAMBASERVER"</code> respectively, whatever the type component of the
NetBIOS name requested.
<p><br>The second mapping will be returned only when the <code>"0x20"</code> name type
for a name <code>"NTSERVER"</code> is queried. Any other name type will not be
resolved.
<p><br>The default location of the <strong>lmhosts</strong> file is in the same directory
as the <a href="smb.conf.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a> file.
<p><br><a name="VERSION"></a>
<h2>VERSION</h2>
<p><br>This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite.

<h2>AUTHOR</h2>
<p><br>The original Samba software and related utilities were created by
Andrew Tridgell (samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au). Samba is now developed
by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the
Linux kernel is developed.
<p><br>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) and updated for the Samba2.0 release by Jeremy
Allison, <a href="mailto:samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au"><em>samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au</em></a>.
<p><br>See <a href="samba.7.html"><strong>samba (7)</strong></a> to find out how to get a full
list of contributors and details on how to submit bug reports,
comments etc.
