I have a suse 8.0 server running samba 2.2.3, its ip adress is in 134.84.86.x and I'm trying to get it so that it works for both its subnet and 160.94.148.x. I have it configured how I want it for its own subnet, but I can't get it to work in the 160.94.148 subnet. This is what my smb.conf file looks like:
[global]
netbios name = muskrat
workgroup = Statistics
server string = Samba Server
load printers = yes
printcap name = /etc/printcap
security = user
encrypt passwords = no
local master = yes
preferred master = yes
os level = 65
hosts allow = 134.84.86. 160.94.148.
remote announce = 160.94.148.255/Statistics
remote browse sync = 160.94.148.255
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = yes
writable = yes
When I go to a win2k machine in the 2nd subnet (160.94.148) and goto map network drive, I put in \\muskrat\nmayotte and it comes up with an error saying "network patth \\muskrat\nmayotte could not be found. I have this comp setup the same as the ones on the 1st subnet. It has a static ip, and is in the statistics workgroup. I thought I had this working last week with a similar smb.conf file, but neither work now. Am I missing something? Or is it more likely that there is a firewall somewhere between these subnets that won't let this work how I want it? Also, would switching to samba 3.0 help at all?
Thanks for any help,
Nathan Mayotte
