Lmhosts on XP SP2 [Faster Network Connection]??
The following is my understanding but am I correct?
LMHOSTS file includes TCP\IP Address and computer name. Include every Computer on Local Network. Example of two computers on single local network: Lmhosts file: 192.168.0.1 garydeam 192.168.0.2 ursniehardt [ Ip address & Computer Name ] Lmhosts is standard in Linux. Stops computers from aimless searching. Never worked on Windows until SP2.!! Incredible and amazing results. Network folders come up instantly on SP2 with lmhosts. Location of file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts Make lmhosts with notepad as standard text; Then rename it "lmhosts" Has no dot\filename, just "lmhosts" Linux Config explains: Computers will hold a referendum to see whom is master! Very time consuming! Hence config can be set as: "Preferred master=NO" "Preferred master=Yes" And a hell of a lot more! |
