Since I unfortunately don't have the kernel fonts right now, I won't be able to run TCPDUMP to check what in the heck is being called. But I have this strange feeling that, if I enable WINS at the NT machine, making it point to the FBSD box, it won't have to dial. For that I guess I'll habe to edit an lmhosts file, what I don't know how to do. So questions are: 1) Is all of this theory right ? 2) If yes, could someone guide my steps to make a good lmhosts file ? (ahm... should it be at the FBSD or NT box ?) 3) any other ideas ? ] TIA !
