Setup for access on two different networks [notspam]
Hello, I'm configuring an NTrigue server to mount home directories from two separate networks, connected by a multi-homed gateeway (which has two Ethernet interfaces). The Samba server is installed on the multi-homed, Sparc Solaris machine. The multi-homed machine serves two networks: net38 and net39. Under Unix, home directories on net39 cannot be mounted on net38; home directories from net38 can be mounted on net39. The configuration looks like this: ; Configuration file for smbd. ; ===========================================================================; ; [global] config file = /usr/local/lib/smb.conf domain master = yes workgroup = GRAFNET os level = 30 domain logons = yes logon script = %U.bat protocol = NT1 case sensitive = no preserve case = yes short preserve case = yes printing = bsd load printers = yes guest account = samba printcap name = /usr/local/lib/smb-printcap log file = /usr/local/var/adm/samba/log.%m lock directory = /usr/local/var/adm/samba/locks share modes = yes server string = Solaris Samba Server %v interfaces = 199.84.38.28/24 199.84.39.1/24 remote announce = 199.84.39.255/TRAINING [netlogon] path = /usr/local/netlogon writable = yes guest ok = yes [homes] comment = Home Directory browseable = yes read only = no create mode = 0750 [printers] path = /tmp comment = All Printers browseable = yes printable = yes public = yes writable = no create mode = 0700 [tmp] comment = Temporary file space path = /tmp read only = no public = yes The NTrigue PC is on the 39 network. I want to allow users from the 39 network to mount their home directories on the PC. But for some reason, it can't. Can't change directory to /home/user (No such file or directory) The reason is that "user" is not known on the 38 network so the home directory cannot be mounted (even on Unix). How can I enable this? Do I have to install another samba server on the 39 network? Or can I get by just by fiddling some of the configuration parameters? I'm, pretty much in a bind and I must find a way to make this work over the weekend. If anyone has done something similar and has some useful tiips for me,I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thank you for your help. -- Laurent Duperval, Systems Analyst Grafnetix Systems Inc.
