Okay... Taking the much appreciated advice of Tim Winders, I added a Samba
Server (DMB) to our second subnet. My network setup now looks like :
|-----------Subnet A
| Workgroup : LAB
| All WIN95 machines (clients)
| SAMBA SERVER (DMB) <--------newly added server
-
router
-
|
|
|
|-----------Subnet B
Workgroup : ADMIN
WINS SERVER / Samba Server / DMB
WIN95 machines (clients)
Prior to adding the Samba Server in Subnet A, machines in subnet B could see
the LAB workgroup, but could not access them. Machines in Subnet A could
see each other, and could see machines in Workgroup ADMIN.
Now that I have added the Samba Server and made it the domain master browser
for Subnet A, I have a whole set of new problems. Now, machines in subnet A
can no longer see each other in the Network Neighborhood, nor can they see
the ADMIN workgroup. All they have access to is a blank LAB workgroup
explorer.
Machines in Subnet B can now access the LAB workgroup, however there are no
machines within it.
I have made progress in that Subnet B machines can access the LAB workgroup
(though they cannot see the machines in it), but I have taken a step back in
that machines in Subnet A can no longer browse anything?
Anymore suggestions?
Thanks for the help!
