The clients behind each gateway, do they point to the local wins server then? So for the clients on the 192.168.0.0 network, they would point to 192.168.0.1, where samba is running a wins server and announces to 192.168.2.255? You have wins server = 192.168.1.50, would I just have wins
support = yes if its on the same machine? Let me clear up what I'm trying to say.
Should my network look like this: Option A
Clients on network A(192.168.0.0) have a wins server of 192.168.0.1(the vpn gateway for them as well as a samba wins server)
192.168.0.1(Samba wins server with these settings, wins support = yes, remote announce = 192.168.2.255)
192.168.2.1(Samba wins server with these settings, wins support = yes, remote announce = 192.168.0.255)
Clients on network B(192.168.2.0) have a wins server of 192.168.2.1(the vpn gateway for them as well as a samba wins server)
Or this: Option B
Clients on network A(192.168.0.0) have a wins server of 192.168.0.1(the vpn gateway for them as well as a samba wins server)
192.168.0.1(Samba wins server with these settings, wins support = yes, remote announce = 192.168.2.255)
192.168.2.1(Samba wins server with these settings, wins server = 192.168.0.1, remote announce = 192.168.0.255)
Clients on network B(192.168.2.0) have a wins server of 192.168.2.1(the vpn gateway for them as well as a samba wins server)
Or this: Option C
Clients on network A(192.168.0.0) have a wins server of 192.168.0.1(the vpn gateway for them as well as a samba wins server)
192.168.0.1(Samba wins server with these settings, wins support = yes, remote announce = 192.168.2.255)
192.168.2.1(Samba wins server with these settings, wins server = 192.168.0.1, remote announce = 192.168.0.255)
Clients on network B(192.168.2.0) have a wins server of 192.168.0.1(the vpn gateway for them as well as a samba wins server)
Thanks for your help

Hi Jason,
I have a similar setup and all I need to do was to enable ip directed broadcast on the router and enter the following settings in smb.conf:
wins server = 192.168.1.50 remote announce = 192.168.1.255

I'm having a hard time figuring this one out. I've done this before when I had a PDC on one end of the VPN, and a BDC on the other. This is what my setup looks like now.
Clients(XP) | PDC(192.168.0.4), windows 2000 | | WINS Server Samba(192.168.0.1), also the gateway for this network | | Internet | | WINS Server Samba(192.168.2.1), also the gateway for this network | | Clients(XP)
With this setup I'm not sure how I'm suppose to setup each wins server. Do I need to have one on each subnet, and then have them both remote announce and remote browse sync to each other? Or maybe some like that? When I'm using remote announce, should it be 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.0 or 192.168.0.255? Same with remote browse sync, does it need to be the actual address of the other wins server? or do I just send it to that subnet? Does anyone have a working configuration with this setup(Domain on one side of the tunnel and just a workgroup on the other, both are the same workgroup). All the machines can ping each others ip, so I know its not a tunnel issue. Thanks for your guys help.
Jason
