dlnbhosts(ADMN)


dlnbhosts -- update NetBIOS host table

Syntax

/etc/dlnbhosts
/etc/dlnbhosts hostname ipaddr
/etc/dlnbhosts $groupname hostname [,hostname...

Description

The dlnbhosts command manipulates the global NetBIOS host table. This internal table is normally maintained by the NetBIOS daemon (see nbd(ADMN)) through NetBIOS messages on the local network. dlnbhosts adds hostname entries from the lmhosts file (see lmhosts(SFF)) to the NetBIOS table for hosts on other subnets.

In the second form, hostname is the name of a NetBIOS host. ipaddr is where the NetBIOS name can be reached, in either dot notation or symbolic IP host name. This form saves the step of adding the hostname/ipaddr pair to the lmhosts file.

The third form adds a NetBIOS hostname to the groupname. The group name must be preceded by a ``$''.

Files
