I have a suse 8.0 server running samba 2.2.3, its ip adress is in 134.84.86.x and
I'm trying to get it so that it works for both its subnet and 160.94.148.x. I have
it configured how I want it for its own subnet, but I can't get it to work in the
160.94.148 subnet. This is what my smb.conf file looks like:
[global]
netbios name = muskrat
workgroup = Statistics
server string = Samba Server
load printers = yes
printcap name = /etc/printcap
security = user
encrypt passwords = no
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
os level = 65
hosts allow = 134.84.86. 160.94.148.
remote announce = 160.94.148.255/Statistics
remote browse sync = 160.94.148.255
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
writable = yes
When I go to a win2k machine in the 2nd subnet (160.94.148) and goto map network
drive, I put in \\muskrat\nmayotte and it comes up with an error saying network
patth \\muskrat\nmayotte could not be found. I have this comp setup the same as the
ones on the 1st subnet. It has a static ip, and is in the statistics workgroup. I
thought I had this working last week with a similar smb.conf file, but neither work
now. Am I missing something? Or is it more likely that there is a firewall
somewhere between these subnets that won't let this work how I want it? Also, would
switching to samba 3.0 help at all?

Not enough info to do much more than guess.
Is there an encrypted tunnel between the two subnets or do you own your
own router that directly connects the two different subnets?
Probably a good idea to have a machine on both subnets - a PDC on one
and BDC on other where both could run WINS and act as netbios locators.
Broadcasts are often stopped by routers so remote broadcasts can't be
counted on as automatically working - seems like you need to do some tcp
dump analysis.
