Hi folks,

 I have many Windows DomUs running on a Xen node. I want to prevent these Windows Machines from 
discovering each other via Netbios. Can anyone help me with the relevant iptables rules. I tried 
simple blocking, but I only managed to block the dom0 <-> domU connection, and not the domU 
<-> domU or domU <-> outside-world.

 I just want to block all netbios connections on all virtual machines on a node.

 Thanks in advance.

You could tweak the windows registry to not discover machines on the network.

regedit:


HKEY_LOCAL_USER
SOFTWARE
Microsoft
Windows
CurrentVersion
Explorer
Advnaced

Add a DWORD, if not there, of NoNetCrawling and set the value to 1.

Hope that helps,

Jon
