How to access a Raspberry Pi on windows network by hostname

28/7/2016

0 Comments

 
To get our Raspberry Pi to show it's hostname on a windows network, we need to install samba and winbind on the Raspberry Pi. In order to do that, we ran the following commands:
sudo apt-get install samba
sudo apt-get install winbind
Then we edit /etc/nsswitch.conf to enable wins:
Change the line "hosts: files dns" to "hosts: files wins dns"
Finally we change the hostname and reboot:
edit /etc/hostname
sudo reboot
That's all!
