Dear All, I am amazed up to now, how easy it is to install samba and get it to do what you want. It is reliable and saves a great deal of time messing with NFS etc. I have one problem that I need to solve, please help:- I have an office connected to our site using routers over a kilostream line. They have a network of 5 Win95 clients one with a printer atttached and shared on its LPT1 port. I managed to get them to connect to shared directories on a unix box at my local site after adding an entry in thier WINS tab under TCP/IP Properties, I added the IP address of my local sites Unix box. On the Unix box I have the line WINS SUPPORT = YES in my smb.conf file. All works well for them connecting the the unix box. HOWEVER ! I cannot do an smbclient -L MACHINENAME I can do a smbclient \\\\MACHINE\\PRINTERNAME -P -N and print to the printer on a client on my local site, so it appears to break when I want to access clients on the remote site over the WAN link. I now have the situation where I cant connect to services at the remote site. but they can connect to me. I have all the printing stuff soreted and working at the local site to print to printers shared on local printer ports and need this to be the case with the remote clients. I would be most grateful if anyone could spare some time to come up with a solution. Thanks for your time Kind Regards Graham Moore Graham Moore Computer Systems Administrator Solid State Logic <grahamm@solid-state-logic.com>
