Both machines cant see each other. and ping, telnet,ftp, http work fine between them. I think one major problem is that entry in the log.nmbd indicating a subnet of one machine, this one,,, Where does smbd and nmbd get its routing from ? checking route -en shows the subnet routing on the local network to be OK Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface xx.xx.148.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.128 U 0 0 0 eth1 44.131.90.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.254.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 xx.xx.148.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 The interface the winblows machine is on is eth0 There's something screwy going on , but what ?
