Dear All,

 

I configured samba-3.2.7 in opensuse11.1(serv1) box in my LAN1 and it is
working fine.

 

Later I configure openvpn p-to-p on the same "serv1".  I accessed "serv1"
from LAN2 (internet) , computer name: notebook-vista, using SSH through
openvpn tunnel and it was working fine.

 

I config samba and openvpn to access samba share in LAN2 using openvpn from
LAN2  in "notebook-vista". 

Initially I was able to open the samba share in "notebook-vista" computer.

Start-> run->cmd-> net use z: \\10.9.0.1\rb <file:///\\10.9.0.1\rb>
/user:kr

 

--------------------------

Samba share is not connected to "notebook-vista" when I tried from LAN2,
next day after restarting both server and client. But ssh is connected via
openvpn from client to Server. 

--------------------------

"notebook-vista"  - vista home premium operating system

Note: I enabled network sharing , network discovery, all user can able to
create a file/folder in "vista"

 

Start-> run->cmd-> net use z: \\10.9.0.1\rb <file:///\\10.9.0.1\rb>
/user:kr

System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.

-------------------

 cmd-> net use  \\10.9.0.1\rb <file:///\\10.9.0.1\rb>  /delete

An active process is accessing this device.
You get more help if you type NET HELPMSG 2404th

---------------------

Still I am getting the same error and not getting samba share in my LAN2 via
openvpn in "notebook-vista"

Start-> run->cmd-> net use z: \\10.9.0.1\rb <file:///\\10.9.0.1\rb>
/user:kr

System error 53 has occurred.
The network path was not found.
