[Samba] Access From another subnet

Greetings:

 

I have setup a Samba Server to be used as a documentation repository.  The
IP address of the server resides in 192.168.1.x

 

I have several Windows XP workstations that reside in the 192.168.1.x
network and have no problem accessing the shares on the Samba Server.

 

I have several Windows XP workstations that reside in the 192.168.2.x
network that will show the Samba Server in the network neighborhood;
however, I get "access denied" errors trying to access it.

 

The following is my smb configuration:

 

# smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented

# version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the

# samba-doc package is installed.

# Date: 2006-06-16

could someone please help me determine why the computers on the 192.168.2.x
subnet cannot access the Samba server.  Thanks.
