You cannot restrict CIFS to an interface. you get rid of the error message if you configure the private interface with the "-wins" option. Then the filer doesn't try to register this ip on the wins server.

Anyone know of a way to restrict CIFS on a filer to certain network interfaces. Specificaly we need to turn it off on one interface. This interface is to a private net and we keep getting:

No WINS servers are responding; still trying

warnings clogging up the log. We want CIFS on the other interfaces and it can easily contact the wins servers on those nets.

 Thanks.
