Hello all, Lately I've been trying to diagnose a strange problem I've been having with a samba set up. I have a laptop running windows 2000 professional connected over a wavelan hub. The wavelan hub can do NAT or just be a straight accesspoint (bridging mode). In NAT mode, I can access other windows 2000 shares (via the \\machinename\share method) but I can not access my samba server (via the \\ipaddress\share method). In non-NAT (bridging mode) everything works fine, I can easily access my samba shares and my windows 2000 shares. I've been trying to figure out why I can't access my samba shares when in bridging mode, anyone have any ideas? Just as a note, the samba server is not behind (or on) the wavelan connection, it is on the other side of the hub (direct connection)... Thanks, Geoffeg
