Perhaps your "where's the DC" broadcast traffic isn't being "forwarded"
through your OpenBSD box when your W95 box is searching for the DC? In
reality, your OpenBSD box is a router because it is routing between your
local LAN and the "dialed-up" network. I'm not that familiar with OpenBSD so
I'm not sure what setting you would need to change to get the broadcasts to
be passed to the dialed network.
Of course, I may not know what I am talking about either...YMMV.

Hi everyone,
When I dial in to my office using Win95 from home, I can login to our
WinNT
4 PDC. Btw, WinNT is also the RAS server. I've got another machine here
at
home and it's Openbsd 2.7. I've configured Openbsd's ipnat.rules and
ipf.rules, and it has 1 lan card too. I can use Openbsd to dial in to
the
WinNT RAS server. Now, when I login to WinNT from my Win95 via Openbsd,
I
couldn't login. It says, "No domain server is available to validate your
password." But from the Win95, I can ping any machine in my office and
even
the WinNT box. I've also tried issuing nbtstat -A
ip.address.of.the.WinNT,
and I can see the netbios name. I've tried adding entries to lmhosts
file
and the only thing I can do is map a network drive that is shared from
the
WinNT box. This means that NAT is properly working. I've also removed
the
ipf.rules which blocks ports 137,138 and 139 but still, no luck. What am
I
missing?
And help would greatly be appreciated.
Thank you very much in advance.
Ronneil
