Multiple Subnets and Netbios Names

[Julia Holloway]

Hello and I hope somebody can help me.  I have a rather unique situation.
I have a Linux machine running RedHat 6.2 with a 2.4 Kernel.  I have two
ethernet cards each going to a private IP subnet.  I would like to have the
Samba server advertise one Netbios name on one subnet, and another Netbios
name on the other subnet.  I thought the easiest way to do this was to
bring up two Samba daemons, each with its own smb.conf file.  I did this,
installing a complete version of Samba into separate directories, and it
seemed to work fine.  But now I have a requirement to save space, so I
installed the bin, lib/codepages, man, private and swat in the
/usr/local/samba directory.  I created two other directories,
/usr/local/samba0 and /usr/local/samba1 each with a var and lib
directories.  The var has the locks and logs.  The lib has the smb.conf
file.  I also have a bin directory linking back to the /usr/local/samba/bin
directory.  When I invoke smbd -D and nmbd -D from these directories, it
looks to be fine except for the following exception:    I cannot seem to be
able to browse from my Windows 98 client.

                                                          Samba Server
                                   (samba1)  ---------------------------
(samba2)
                                                         /
\
                              20.20.20.0      /
\     10.10.10.0
                                         -------------------
----------------------
                                            Client1
Client2

The client (10.10.10.41  255.255.255.0) is on the same subnet as the server
(10.10.10.51 255.255.255.0).  Net use * works, and Net view works, and if I
type in the server path   \\samba0\test from the Network Neighborhod
window, that works as well.   But my server won't show up in my browse list
on its own.  I followed the Fault tree analysis in the O'Reilly book, and
was not able to find the problem.

My smb.conf file is very simple:

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from viastingray (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2000/11/09 23:20:33

# Global parameters
[global]
    workgroup = NETCONN
    server string = Samba 2.07 Server (ETH0 Only)
    netbios name = SAMBA0
    interfaces = eth0
    bind interfaces only = Yes
    encrypt passwords = yes
    log level = 0
    name resolve order = wins lmhosts host bcast
    security = user
    debug level = 0

[test]
    comment = Share for SAMBA0 (only)
    path = /export/samba/test
    read only = No

Any Ideas ??
