Aphro, Spot on! Removing the interface binding means it works but I assume this means everyone on the Internet has access to the share which is not what I wanted. smb.conf reads : #Global parameters debug level = 3 netbios name = gateway workgroup = workgroup server string = %h server (Debian) #interfaces = 192.1.1.0/24 #bind interfaces only = yes share modes = yes domain master = yes time server = yes os level = 40
The particular client is using public IP numbers for internal LAN (!) which will change on Friday. Probably move to 10.0.0.0/24 and I'll bind the samba access to this range only. Patrick
