Note that both the server name (“mypdc”) and the domain name (“mypdc.dom”) must be given together with the server's IP address.

or (as an alternative):

ÊEdit the file /var/opt/nbrfc/conf/interfaces.cfg and configure the IP address of the primary controller’s subnet in the appropriate interface section using the parameter “brdcast_list=”:

Example entry in interfaces.cfg:

[et0]

active=yes

used_by_wins=yes ip_addr=default brdcast_addr=default

# Subnet address of my primary domain controller:

brdcast_list=144.145.101.255 netmask=default

i

If the brdcast_list line is commented out (default), do not forget to uncomment the line!

To ensure that the primary domain controller can be found if this server is a WINS client:

ÊEdit the file /var/opt/nbrfc/conf/wins.cfg and add the appropriate WINS server addresses.

For detailed information on configuring name resolution, refer to section “Configuring NetBIOS Name Resolution”.

In any case, you should now reboot the system before proceeding with the instal- lation of the server software.
