Hello! I have two LAN with pfSense:
192.168.0.1/24 (LAN) 192.168.10.1/24 (OPT1) All traffic from LAN to OPT1 is permitted. At LAN I have a Samba server working as "Master Browser" and WINS server. Traffic from OPT to Samba server at LAN is allowed (137, 138, 139 and 445 ports). File sharing is done without problems. I'm using DHCP with pfSense and all machines have the WINS server configured by DHCP. However it is impossible to see "Near Computers" with Windows clients (and I hope it will be the same with no-Windows Samba Clients). I read a lot of documentation. A WINS server is needed in order to see NetBIOS names between different LANs. And only one WINS server for the hole LANs. No problem if we type \\computer to access to other machines, but we can't list the machines from one LAN to other ... At our FreeBSD 6.1 working with Samba we tried: # nmblookup -U localhost -R pc25 querying pc25 on 127.0.0.1 192.168.10.45 pc25<00> # nmblookup pc25 querying pc25 on 192.168.0.255 name_query failed to find name pc25 # nmblookup -B 192.168.255.255 -R pc25 querying pc25 on 192.168.255.255 name_query failed to find name pc25 # nmblookup -B 192.168.1.255 -R pc25 querying pc25 on 192.168.1.255 192.168.1.45 pc25<00> pc25 is a machine at the OPT1 side. Any idea? Josep Pujadas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
