And now it's time to configure more advanced options in Miami.

Let's bring up the tcp/ip menu in miami.

As you can see I've filled out the 'host name' with the name of my amiga.

Hostname is just another name of my ip adress . i.e:

ping 192.168.0.4
ping amiga4000

Will just result in the same as it's the same thing we are talking about.

This is some of the magic behind it:

I selected 'Database' and selected 'Host' witch is an local file that is list of ip adress and their correct hostname.
Just press add, and write in the ip adress, then the hostname. Simple as this, rember to put yourself there as well.

Rember to save and press online, open an shell and type:

Miami:
miamiping 'thehostnameofthepc'
Ctrl c

miamiping 'you hostname'
Ctrl c

Something like this should come up.

Good Lord we made it, we have contact !
This is important, as we now know that there is nothing wrong with the tcp/ip setup.

If it fail, check the cables, pc's configuration etc.
I bett you though your was finished now eh ;), nope. Now we're off to even more stuff to configure.

Go to the database again and select 'services'

fill in 3 new entrys:

netbios-ns,137,udp
netbios-dgm,138,udp
netbios-ssn,139,tcp
swat,901,tcp

It should look something like this:

2 new entrys:

netbios-ssn,stream,tcp,nowait,root,samba:bin/smbd,smbd
swat,stream,tcp,nowait,root,samba:bin/swat,swat

If we lucky it should be like this.

Even more, now it's time for users. And this is quite important.
Add this 2 users:

pcguest,nopassword,586,99,Samba Guest,sys:,noshell
root,'password',0,0, , , sys:

'pcguest' is the user that samba uses, it's important that it set up correctly.
 'root' will be used for swat and some other Unix emulated functions.
Select groups and make a group like this

guest,*,99,pcguest

Ok, now we have setup the services port samba will use, the deamons that it will use, and users and groups.
We came a far way. In the next section, we will try it :) Whohoo !
