Hi:
I am trying to connect a computer at a different location to my server.
The computer is running Win 95, and the server is running Linux, I am
using Samba to connect the other Win 95 machines in my office to my
server. I initially set up this computer in my office, and then brought
it to the remote office. I thought all I needed to change was the IP
address, the Gateway, and the domain name to get this computer to
connect to my server. This computer is using a different (IP router).
However, this has not worked. I can access the internet and my e-mail,
so I know that the network connection is good. I can also ping and
telnet to my server.
I thought the only change I would need to make to the smb.conf file
would be to add the IP address to the allow host section. Is there
something that I am
missing?
I would appreciate any advice that people might have. Thanks.
Matt
