I must not have seen the original post, but I am running NT at work and
WinME & Win2000 at home, and have been able to get to the NT Shares.  I
could not browse the work network, but I could do the following

Start-run-\\192.168.1.5

And was able to view the shares at work.. don't know if this answers your
question, but I know it worked for me..

Subject: [Leaf-user] NT networking over LEAF IPSEC VPN

I posted the problem below on the FreeS/WAN users list and got a number of
replies including agreement from others who have tried, but no one said
"Hey I have NT (SMB) running across an IPSEC VPN".  The best suggestions I
got were to create a WINS (SAMBA) server on the remote side. I agree that
should solve the problem, but when one talks about adding potentially
hundreds of new SAMBA servers to a domain with trust relationships to
thousands of servers this presents a big problem.

The setup is simple: one or many Windows PC on the remote end,  dozens of
NT domains on the local end, and DCD-Cisco Router
in between.  Has anyone here at LEAF gotten SMB networking to propagate
properly through an IPSEC tunnel? I can map drives and access file shares.
It is   s  l  o  w  but it works.  What I can't do is view network browse
lists, do network printing, in short almost the entire gamut of SMB.

WINS information is passed by the DHCP server to the PCs. I have tried
putting server info in LMHOSTS files. None of it helps. Has anyone solved
this problem before?

Subject: [Users] NT networking over a FreeS/WAN tunnel

I am running a tunnel from a Dachstein firewall to a Cisco router. WINS
servers are on the inside of the Cisco and Windows machines on the inside
of the Dachstein. The Cisco router NATs the Tunnel addresses to routable
addresses on its inside interface.

Everything seems to be working fine through the tunnel (TCP, ICMP, UDP)
except the NT networking. DHCP on the Dachstein passes the correct Wins
information to the Windows PCs. I can logon (usually). I can map drives on
servers, if I know in advance the server/share name. Mapped drives are
horrendously slow.  I can not browse the NT domain.  I can not use network
printers.

Does anyone have a clue as to what might be the problem?

Roger
