I am running a small network, consisting mostly of Windows XP clients. I'm moving my server from Debian/Samba/WINS to OpenIndiana. Now I cannot access the server by its name, although I can by IP:
C:\Users\jaquer>net view \\lisa
System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.
C:\Users\jaquer>net view \\192.168.1.10
Shared resources at \\192.168.1.10

I can ping the server, and the name resolves to the right IP:
C:\Users\jaquer>ping -n 1 lisa

I've made sure that NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled. The router is running m0n0wall, in case that matters. I'd rather not add the server to the [lm]hosts file.
Make sure you don't have another computer on your network with the same name as your server! – None – 2012-05-31T12:50:04.473
