Title: Wins name resolution
Post by: mauro on July 31, 2021, 10:02:10 AM

I cannot get wins name resolution to work in SME10.
I can ping <pc_name> from one pc to the other, but from the server i get the error

"ping: <pc_name>: Name or service not known."

In the past on SME9.2 I used the workaround of bug #7013 but that is not enough, am I missing some packages or configuration?

Have a read on SMB1 vs SMB3. Lots of threads here and covered in depth many times.

A good search will lead you to smeserver-wsdd.

SME10 by default does not support SMB1 and Netbios name resolution (WINS), wsdd implements a Web Service Discovery which is better explained Here (https://github.com/christgau/wsdd/blob/master/README.md)
