[LUNI] Samba Networking Problems

You could add all of the hosts/ip's to the /etc/hosts file.

Subject: [LUNI] Samba Networking Problems


I have a network at a school where there is a linux box serving as a
proxy server.  I have IPChains enabled to provide NAT services for the
internal network.  This server is also running samba (please, no
lectures on why I shouldn't be doing this).  I am not running bind on
this server.  It appears that their are brief outages in the AT&T
broadband cable service that are causing the samba network to go down as
well, likely because of the lack of a reply to a DNS request.  Is there
a solution to this other than running BIND as a caching nameserver for
the internal network?
