NetBIOS Command Reference

Chapter 22

NetBIOS Command Reference

This chapter lists and describes the valid commands for the ncb_command field of the NCB structure that you must pass to the Netbios function. Each command description includes a table that indicates which fields of the NCB structure you must set for that command and which fields the Netbios function sets prior to returning. Each table contains two columns. The first column indicates whether the given field of the NCB structure is an input or output parameter. The second column indicates whether the field must be set when making a NetBIOS call. If this column is marked with an X, a value must be provided. Otherwise, if the field is an input parameter and no X is present, providing a value is optional. Please refer to Chapter 17 for an in-depth discussion of the Netbios function.
