Version: 0.90.0-1
Severity: normal
network-admin shouldn't set wins support and wins server in the same field. This
should be splitted into:
wins support: yes/no
wins server: ip string
To set it in the same config isn't usefull, because i can set the server only if
I enable the check button. AFAIK, this is absolutely wrong, because it's not allowed to
use both at the same time.
To give the user the ability to set the right option, this must be a radio button,
which switches between these options. In this case it isn't possible to misconfigure
this. And there should be a note to set only one host with wins support for a given
subnet.
The radio button will default to one of the settings - so it must either default to
wins server with an empty string (then network admin shouldn't set anything in smb.conf)
or there must be a check button to disable the wins part if it isn't needed or used.
