Wide-area browsing & getting the broadcast mask right ??
Hi, I'm running 1.9.18p7 on a Solaris 2.5 box with two interfaces. I have 2 class-C networks that are divided up with a 26-bit netmask (255.255.255.192) into 4 subnets, each. This is what the interfaces look like: le0: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 38.253.161.130 netmask ffffffc0 broadcast 38.253.161.128 ether 8:0:20:77:34:b3 le1: flags=863<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet 38.253.161.220 netmask ffffffc0 broadcast 38.253.161.192 ether 8:0:20:77:34:b3 However, in my 'log.smb' I get the following: Added interface ip=38.253.161.130 bcast=38.253.161.191 nmask=255.255.255.192 Added interface ip=38.253.161.220 bcast=38.253.161.255 nmask=255.255.255.192 The broadcast masks are not correct, and must be affecting my WAN-browsing. Is there a way to manually set the broadcast masks for each interface? In my smb.conf file I have used the following (possibly) pertinent settings: ------------------------------------------ ; Configure both interfaces interfaces = 38.253.161.130/26 38.253.161.220/26 domain master = yes local master = yes preferred master = yes os level = 65 remote announce = 38.253.161.0 38.253.161.64 38.253.161.128 38.253.161.192 38.253.162.0 38.253.162.64 38.253.162.128 38.253.162.192 ------------------------------------------ Despite the 'remote announce', I don't see any of the machines from the 38.253.162.64 network in my Network Neighborhood. Any suggestions or advice will be appreciated. Cheers! -- Shawn ====================================//=====================================Shawn A.
