Hi,
I have network in my office with Samba server on Debian Linux. I would
like to get the folders and files in this server from my home with
Windows XP.
So, I done the VPN connection. I think, it works good. In the VPN
connection Samba Server's ip address is 192.168.2.1 and net mask is
255.255.255.255. The client's ip address is 192.168.2.6. and netmask is
255.255.255.252.
I can ping the server from the client and back too. The workgrupname
in the smb.conf and windows XP are same.
The problem is that I can't see the linux computer in the network place
on the Windows XP. Why?
Sincerely,
Zoli
Network places isn't the best way to find machines, especially over a WAN.
Try browsing directly to the server's name or IP.
If you really need network places to work, setup a wins server.
