Hi all
We are having trouble with some Samba shares on one of our servers not
being accessible by one of our guys that works remotely.
He is connecting using Shrewsoft VPN client 2.1.5, OS is Windows 7 pro
32bit. He can ping the server, can use SSH to connect to the terminal
software on the server, but shares do not come up in windows explorer.
This has been tested on my laptop as well with the same setup, which has
the same problem.
Inside the network, there is no problem, all win 7 clients can connect
without a problem.
Any ideas?
Hi Brett,
One thing to check is if the user's OS has a clock time that's way out
of sync with the server in question. I know this sounds odd, but I ran
into a similar problem when running the WinQual tests with a Windows 7
host. I could not access a file share until I adjusted the clock to be
closer to the DTM controller clock that hosted the share.
You can also try to lower the MTU on the virtual adapter. This has been
reported to fix problems like the one you are experiencing.
Another thing to try is to test this build. Its a long shot, but one of
the firmware engineers from a security appliance manufacturer recently
noticed that our client sometimes added too much padding when encoding
ESP payloads in certain situations. Luckily, they were nice enough to
inform me of the problem so it could be resolved. Here is a test build
that includes the fix ...

... But like I said, its a long shot.
Let me know how it goes,
-Matthew
