Hi all, I hope some one can help with a problem I'm having. I have a test box w/2.0.4b running on top of Redhat 5.2 it works great on the local network. It works across our T1 WAN links. I can even dial in using the RAS server on one of my NT boxes. The problem comes in when I try using an ISP and a VPN tunnel ( it works without the VPN if I put the box outside the firewall ) , after about 4 minutes I get the messages " The specified resource is not available. The computer that shared the resource might have been turned off................." I can map to any of the NT servers but not any of my Linux/AIX boxes.? The lmhost file on the PC is setup with the DOMAIN?and the 0x1b pre loaded into memory.? I see the request for a connection in the log files, but then it tells me closing idle connection (long before the above message on the client PC). I can trick the thing into working by bringing up the VPN tunnel then going in and changing the WINS server address to one on my side of the tunnel, but that is to much to ask of most end users.? ? I guess my question is why will it not work with just a lmhost file. ? ? ? Rex Huckeby System Administrator Griffin Memorial Hospital
