Re: [Samba] Samba 3 master browser on two networks plus WINS
The samba server also acts as the router. That is correct, a pc on subnet 1 cannot access a pc on subnet 2 through samba, but works fine using other protocols. Both subnet 1 and subnet 2 have pc that run Windows 7 x64, or Windows XP, or Linux (usually Fedora 17). The server itself runs on Archlinux. >> It seems that WINS is not the problem. Then what is ? From: Gaiseric Vandal To: samba@lists.samba.org Sent: Thursday, January 3, 2013 11:02 PM Subject: Re: [Samba] Samba 3 master browser on two networks plus WINS Presumably pc on subnet1 does NOT need to access a share from 192.168.7.1 since it can access 192.168.5.1. Presumably pc on subnet2 does NOT need to access a share from 192.168.5.1 since it can access 192.168.7.1. If you have a dual homed server + a router between subnets your routing could get a little tricky when access shares on the "other subnet" IP of the samba server. Or is the samba server also the router? But to clarify your issue is that a /*single-homed client */ PC on subnet1 (e.g. LIVINGROOM) can not access shares on single-homed client PC on subnet2 (e.g. ACERJUNKI)- even though they can ping each other?

[Samba] Samba 3 master browser on two networks plus WINS
I'm banging my head against the wall here with a problem that I have. I have one Samba 3 server on a linux box with 2 ethernet interfaces, each given a different subnet. The same box does dhcp leases on both networks, with wins option pointing to this server. Firewall was configured to allow the best unobtrusive communication between the two subnets, I can ping between the subnets and receive response, I can also access some other services, like http, from one subnet to the other. I have setup on this server a common Public share, which works. Now I'm trying to get the Samba PC from subnet 1 to see the Samba PC from subnet 2 and viceversa, but to no avail. On subnet 1 I can see access the server via it's NetBIOS name, but on subnet 2 I can only see the server and access it via it's IP. No other Samba PC's can be seen across the subnets! All pc's have the same workgroup. What to enable in configuration in order to be able to do cross subnet browsing with samba ?

[Samba] PDC/wins on multiple networks
Hi to everyone on the mailing list. I have two networks at home, apart from the internet. One is the wired network, LAN, and the other is the wireless network, WLAN. They need to be separated, not bridged, because of hardware issues. I am trying to setup inter-networking browsing on these networks, pc's on LAN should see and browse pc's on WLAN and viceversa. After reading the manual I have enabled wins server master and wins proxy in samba configuration. However I can only see the pc's from the other network, but I cannot browse them, windows returns an error like "network path could not be found". The samba server runs on my router box, together with the firewall (managed through shorewall) and dnsmasq for dhcp/dns. Below is my global smb.conf part. [global] server string = Samba Server interfaces = eth1, lo, wlan0 bind interfaces only = Yes security = SHARE log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 announce as = NT Workstation os level = 99 lm interval = 10 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes wins proxy = Yes wins support = Yes remote announce = 192.168.5.255/WORKGROUP 192.168.7.255/WORKGROUP create mask = 0666 case sensitive = No preserve case = No short preserve case = No hide special files = Yes map hidden = Yes store dos attributes = Yes Thanks. -- .
