-<title>Networking With Windows</title>
-
-<para> This section is borrowed and modified from Alexander Neundorf's
-README file on LISa.</para>
-
-<para>&tde; features two powerful servers called the Lan Information
-Server (<application>LISa</application>) and Restricted Lan
-Information Server (<application>resLISa</application>) which are used
-to identify CIFS and other servers on your local network providing a
-function similar to <quote>Network Neighbourhood</quote> in
-&Microsoft; &Windows;.</para>
-
-<sect2 id="How-It-Works">
-<title>How It Works</title>
-
-<para>&lisa; only depends on the TCP/IP stack so samba configuration is not
-required to make it work but the <ulink
-url="http://www.samba.org">samba</ulink> package is a dependency. To find
-hosts on your local network you set a range of IP-Addresses in your
-configuration file that &lisa; will check. When you start the &lisa; daemon
-it will send a <ulink url="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc792.txt">ICMP</ulink>,
-echo request message to all the IP addresses given in the configuration file
-and await a response.</para>
-
-<note><para>The &lisa; daemon requires root privileges to open the socket,
-but once the socket has been established root privileges are immediately
-dropped.</para></note>
-
-<para>You can also execute &lisa; using <command>nmblookup
-<option>"*"</option></command>.<note><para>If you do not have the
-<command>nmblookup</command> program it can be found at <ulink
-url="http://www.samba.org">http://www.samba.org</ulink> or through packages
-provided by your distribution</para></note>. The samba command
-<command>nmblookup <option>"*"</option></command> will send a broadcast
-message to the attached network and any host that is running the
-smb-services will send a reply stating that it is accepting
-connections.</para>
-</sect2>
-
-<sect2 id="resLISa">
-<title><application>resLISa</application></title>
-
-<para>If your company network has very strict guidelines governing what
-ports can and cannot be opened you will have to use &reslisa; to communicate
-with other hosts on your network. Because &reslisa; cannot ping entire
-networks or address ranges you will have to add each host by name to your
-confiuration file. Currently you are able to add up to 64 hosts, and these
-addresses are pingable.</para>
-
-<note><para>&reslisa; will only provide the information over a &UNIX; domain
-socket, &ie; not over the network. The name of the socket is
-<filename>/tmp/resLISa-<replaceable>YourLoginName</replaceable></filename>,
-so &reslisa; can be safely run on the same machine by more than one
-user.</para></note>
-</sect2>
-
-<sect2 id="configuration">
-<title>Configuration</title>
-
-<para>At startup &lisa; first parses the configuration file in the users
-home directory under <filename>$<envar>HOME</envar>/.lisarc</filename>. If
-this file does not exist &lisa; will then look for a system wide
-confiuration located at <filename>/etc/lisarc</filename>. Now for a sample
-example configuration file:</para>
-
-<programlisting>
-PingAddresses = 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0;192.168.100.10-192.168.199.19;192.168.200.1;
-PingNames = my_host1;my_host2 #Hosts by name (required for <application>resLISa</application>)
-AllowedAddresses = 192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0
-BroadcastNetwork = 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0
-SearchUsingNmblookup = 1 #also try nmblookup
-FirstWait = 30 #30 one-hundredth's of a second
-SecondWait = -1 #Only try once
-#SecondWait = 60 #Try twice and wait 0.6 seconds
-UpdatePeriod = 300 #Update every 300 sec's
-DeliverUnnamedHosts = 0 #Don't publish unnamed hosts
-MaxPingsAtOnce = 256 #Send up to 256 ICMP echo requests at once
