 Hi

 I am running samba on a freebsd box (behind NAT, IP = 192.168.1.207) with
 pptpclient connecting to my company m$2k VPN (tunnel IP = 192.168.0.206).
 At first, I can ping the fbsd with its hostname (freebsd) from my company.
 But when I try to net use freebsd /user:xxx *, the net use will fail
 (err = The network path was not found.) and afterwards I can see that ping
 will use 192.168.1.207 (which was originally 192.168.0.206). I can ping
 again if I restart the samba. But everytime when I try to use the netbios
 name I will get the redirection changed wrongly.

 So I tried to use IP instead. I can browse \\freebsd and net use my home
 \\freebsd\ivan sucessfully. But when I try to browse \\freebsd\ivan it will
 hold for a minute and I will finally get the message \\192.168.0.206\ivan
 is not accessible. The specified network name is no longer available.

Windows specifies that per subnet you need one domain master. So it won't work 
until you have a domain master at the other side of the pptp link.
Once I made such a configuration working by bi-maping broadcast addresses.
It's very ugly, but that was for a test and it did work.

 Thank you.

There is one domina master in the subnet 192.168.1.0
If I hardcode the mapping freebsd-192.168.0.206, it works. May I know
what's the reason?
