Hi * I have a question about windows network browsing from linux box in a multi-subneted network. I have such network topology: my subnet is 10.105.27.224/27, there are 10 boxes in my subnet; also there are several other subnets - 10.105.27.0/27, 10.105.27.96/27, ..., 172.17.51.64/27, ..., 172.17.48.0/26, ... In our network we have one wins server with ip 172.17.48.13 that very likely configured as a domain controller and several domains, that spans across several subnetworks: DOMAIN1, DOMAIN2, DOMAIN3. When I config my samba server not be a local master browser, than all my subnet doesn't have access to local network, because no one other box wants to become a LMB (I've tried to wait about 2 hours). When I config my samba server as a LMB, than I and all boxes in my subnet could see only our DOMAIN2 and only boxes from our subnet in it. In this case samba log says, that: find_domain_master_name_query_fail(351) Unable to find the Domain Master Browser name DOMAIN1<1b> for the workgroup DOMAIN1 So how can I properly config my samba server to see all domains and all computers? ------------------------------------------------------------- Here is my smb.conf: Samba version 3.0.25b ---------------------------------- [global] workgroup = DOMAIN2 server string = My Server security = share hosts allow = ALL load printers = no log file = /var/log/samba/samba.%m max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 interfaces = eth0 local master = yes domain master = no preferred master = yes wins support = no wins server = 172.17.48.13 wins proxy = yes dns proxy = no name resolve order = wins host bcast [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes [public] path = /home/samba public = yes guest ok = yes only guest = yes writable = yes printable = no ------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks in advance
