RE: [PLUG] DNS, DHCP, SAMBA & Windows
|
WiNS (on SAMBA) and the DHCP server gives out _everything_: domain name, IP,
WiNS server(s), M$ client node type (H or 0x8), DNS servers, default
gateway. DHCP will give out an IP address, the client registers with WiNS
(ARP?), the WiNS server populates it's DB, then clients hit the WiNS server
instead of doing broadcasts. (On Microsoft you can link DNS and WiNS too for
not Windows clients.)
Or use NetBEUI...

==> Hello all,
==>
==> I'm setting up a small intranet LAN with a Linux box running
==> SAMBA as the
==> primary server around several windows 98 boxes. I'm using DNS
==> to assign IP
==> addresses and I'd like the machines to be able to refer to each
==> other by name
==> (machine.mydomain.com) . I'm having difficulty understanding
==> how to do this.
==> I assume I need to setup a DNS server on my lan (which will
==> also be connected
==> to the internet via a seperate firewall device), but how do i
==> get the DNS to
==> update IP/name pairs in conjunction with DHCP? What do I need
==> to do on the
==> windows machines besides? Wins? or just configure DNS and point
==> it to my
==> internal DNS box? I've been perusing how-to's, bit i'm a little
==> dense and
==> need something in simple language.
==>
==> thanks
