samba using multiple ip's
 

I have eth0 using DHCP, and i added eth0:0 192.168.0.19 for local sharring. For what ever reason if I add :
"interfaces = 192.168.0.19" or
"interfaces = 192.168.0.19\24" or
"interfaces = 192.168.0.19\255.255.255.0" it fails. I also tried:
interfaces = 192.168.0.19 x.x.x.x(my ip) and it crashed my debian system. do I need to do somthing special for a second ip instead of a second nic, when editing my smb.conf file?


also How would you set up a wins server in the smb.con.

Try substituting the BACKSLASH "\" for a SLASH "/"

hmm not sure what I tried now. but thx,,,

syntax

interfaces = 192.168.0.19/24


I can connect to my linux box from any computer. But my linux box cant connect to any computer name or ip, even its self. Iknow this is the correct ip, I just feel it has something to do with the eth0:0 for sula ip's on one nic.

is this correct for wins?

wins support = true
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
domain master = yes

or do I not need all of that.

looks like this is what i'm tring

the only differance is they use eth0:1, I guess ill give that a try.
