I've got to networks connected through leased line, routing set between networks, WINS server running on Samba. There's one primary samba server, and Win98/WinXP clients connected to it. First network with samba server works great with win98 and winxp. Second network also works ok with win98 clients, but when I connect Winxp it can't even open "my network places" and show all computers on the workgroup. (it dosen't show _any_ computers, just message to contact with administrator of "WORKGROUP" :-))))) The same WinXP when connected directly to network with samba server works OK. How can I make this WinXP in other office to see samba server/all computers? -- Daniel Fenert --==> daniel@fenert.net <==-- ==-P o w e r e d--b y--S l a c k w a r e-=-ICQ #37739641-=If you ask the wrong questions you get answers like '42' or 'God'. =======- http://daniel.fenert.net/ -=======< +48604628083 >
Hi Daniel Browsing on mixed subnets network cross routers is problem. I dont undestand how is configured your leased line and routers but if your Win98 clients on second network ok see first segment PCs then problem is exatly in XP . You must set only tcpip protocol on XP and workgroup must be some. And wins on XP must be set to samba IP. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniellek" <daniel@rotfl.linux.krakow.pl> To: <samba@lists.samba.org> Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 8:31 PM Subject: [Samba] cross subnet browsing (win Xp problem)> I've got to networks connected through leased line, routing set between > networks, WINS server running on Samba. > > There's one primary samba server, and Win98/WinXP clients connected to it. > > First network with samba server works great with win98 and winxp. > > Second network also works ok with win98 clients, but when I connect Winxp > it can't even open "my network places" and show all computers on theworkgroup.> (it dosen't show _any_ computers, just message to contact withadministrator> of "WORKGROUP" :-))))) > > The same WinXP when connected directly to network with samba server worksOK.> > How can I make this WinXP in other office to see samba server/allcomputers?> > -- > Daniel Fenert --==> daniel@fenert.net <==-- > ==-P o w e r e d--b y--S l a c k w a r e-=-ICQ #37739641-=> If you ask the wrong questions you get answers like '42' or 'God'. > =======- http://daniel.fenert.net/ -=======< +48604628083 > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the > instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
When you connect XP to segment with samba then samba is master browser and all is ok but when you connect to secondary segment without samba then problem is in priority and forwarding broadcast. Try laborate with registry and parameter MaintainServerList=No as described on http://www.buildorbuy.org/browsemaster.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniellek" <daniel@fenert.net> To: "Marian Mlcoch, Ing" <mm@tsmp.sk> Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 10:57 AM Subject: Re: [Samba] cross subnet browsing (win Xp problem)> W dniu Wed, Nov 06, 2002 at 07:38:42AM +0100, Marian Mlcoch, Ingwystuka?(a):> >Hi Daniel > >Browsing on mixed subnets network cross routers is problem. > >I dont undestand how is configured your leased line and routers but ifyour> >Win98 clients on second network ok see first segment PCs then problem is > >exatly in XP .
