I have a problem I hope someone can help with.
We are using samba for over a month and have been having no trouble. The
other day I changed the IP address on the other side of our firewall as
well as the ISP assigned DNS address. I then made the changes on the DHCP
server so that all the clients (mixed Win95 and 98) would have the new
address. Since then samba has been down. It seems that the clients can't
see samba anymore. They can all ping the server and I tried all the
diagnostics listed in the included documentation. Smbclient and nmblookup
all work properly on the server so it seems that the clients now can't see
samba. I made no other changes and double checked the DHCP info and it's
correct. The clients all have the correct WINS address but can't see
it. I have tried everything I can think of on both the client and server
sides but I don't know what's wrong. It seems that the server is working
properly but the clients can't see it. I even tried turning off NetBIOS
over DNS but it didn't do any good. Anything else I might try? The
network is down now and it needs to back up as soon as possible.
