Subject: [Samba] v3.0.4 and remote browsing over VPN
Date: Thu, 04 Nov 2004 22:19:52 +0000
Greetings All,
Here's my situation:
I'm attempting to connect two Samba v3.0.4 (on slack 10) boxes over a
VPN/Firewall for cross-subnet browsing.
Side "A" of my setup consists of a Win95-WinXP network behind a Cisco
pix 501,
and is subnet 192.168.1.XXX
Side "B" of my setup consists of an NT4 network behind another pix
501, and is
subnet 192.168.2.XXX
Each subnet has it's own workgroup.
All machines have static IPs, and I am able to ping any machine from any
machine. Each Samba box's IP is: 192.168.XXX.20
To this point, I have done this with each Samba box:
1) Install Slackware 10
2) chmod +x /etc/rc.d/rc.smbd
3) edited inetd.conf for use of SWAT
4) used SWAT to configure smbd.conf
.1.20 is "Domain Master Controller", has "WINS support"
enabled, "remote
Announces" itself to the .2.20 box, and "remote browse syncs"
itself to
the .2.20 box. I have also increased "os level" to 65 to insure the
election
win.
.2.20 configuration is similar, except that it is only a "Local
Master" and is
set to announce and sync itself to .1.20
These configs worked to the point of creating the local subnets' browse
lists,
this I am sure of because I have noticed a general speedup in "Network
Neighborhood"/"My Network Places" while browsing locally from
each subnet.
My problem is that while I can see the other subnet's workgroup, there are
no
computers populating it (even the Samba box). I have been struggling with this
for some time now, and even after having dissected the helpfiles, I am still
coming up at a loss. Any help would be TREMENDOUSLY appreciated, and thanks
for reading this far.
