Okay, I just updated our Samba configuration from
1.9.something to 2.2.1a. THe users in question are
running Win98.
This is probably a simple question, but I just don't have
the experience to know.
Our problem is that one user used to dial in through
our company's dial-in setup and run PPP, and then they
were assigned an IP address on a different subnet (.68). In
the past, through Network Neighborhood, she could do
a "search" for her PC, which is on OUR subnet (.16) and find it
and access the shared C: drive just fine. No changes
have been made to her PC, just our Samba server here.
How do I "advertise" or make accessible our .16 subnet PCs to
the .68 subnet? Under Samba 1.9 obviously I didn't have to worry
about this, but Samba 2 is more secure..
Below is the smb.conf file. I changed our IP numbers to 999.999
for privacy reasons..
