Can't find Windows boxes by hostname
Hello,
I can't find any of my Windows boxes that are connected to my wireless router by hostname, but the ip address works fine.
Code:
knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by NetworkManager
domain Belkin
search Belkin
nameserver 192.168.2.1
If I visit the 192.168.2.1 website and go to the DHCP settings, I see all the hostnames and ip addresses of all the attached devices. So if my Belkin wireless router knows the ip address/hostname mapping, why can't it send me to the appropriate device when I do a ping, etc?
