Hi All,
I'm having a problem with cross subnet browsing and name resolution across
an openvpn tunnel. i've found quite a few people who've had the same on
mail lists but none of their fixes have worked. The spec of the setups at
both ends of the tunnel are as follows:
OS - CentOS 5.5
Samba Version 3.5.4
OpenVPN Version 2.0.9-1
Each server is configured in gateway mode with two NICS, one to the lan
and the other to a modem/router. The first machine, HEADOFFICE, has an
internal IP address of
192.168.0.1 and an external of 192.168.10.4. The second machine, REMOTE1,
has an internal address of 192.168.1.254 and an external of 192.168.20.4.
On openVPN, I have configured client to client and routes and iroutes to
allow machines on each network to ping machines at the other end as well
as the server IP's.
So far so good and I can ping any machine on either subnet from anywhere
and get a reply. The servers are configured as Samba servers with the
HEADOFFICE machine
working as a PDC, DMC and WINS server and the REMOTE1 machine configured
as a BDC and WINS proxy. In order to maintain logon facilities in the
event of broadband failure,
I have replicated the LDAP server from HEADOFFICE to REMOTE1 and updates
and password changes propogate successfully from one site to the other.
If I try to access HEADOFFICE from REMOTE1 and REMOTE1's subnet it works
perfectly but trying to access REMOTE1 from HEADOFFICE and its subnet
fails on name resolution while
entering \\192.168.1.254\ brings up Windows Explorer and a list of shares.
I've included the remote browse entries in smb.conf on the PDC and have
WINS Proxying set up on the BDC but I can't get it to push REMOTE1's IP
back to the WINS server.
Port scanning the internal IP of each machine from the oher end of the
tunnel returns a full set of open ports for the services I'm using but no
IP.
If anyone can spot what I'm doing wrong I'd be grateful.
Thanks.

If you have fixed IPs (or static DNS leases), one way round this is to populate %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\lmhosts on the Windows client.
