[Samba] Running two instances of Samba in the same machine
I have two subnets S1 and S2 and only one machine running samba, but this machine is connected to both subnets, ahs one interface in each subnet and is acting as a router. I want to have a workgroup that spans the two subnets, so any machine in subnet S1 should see all the machines regardless of their subnet when doing browsing. I know that to do this I need: -One LMB in each subnet using Samba. -One of the LMB of the two subnets should be a DMB and at the same time a WINS server. -I configure all the clients (Windows and Linux) to use WINS. Since I only have one machine connected to both subnets running samba, I think I need to run two instances of samba (smbd and nmbd) in that machine each one binded to one interface and using different smb.conf files. Is that the only solution ? Thanks __________________________________ Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday! Yahoo! Netrospective: 100 Moments of the Web http://birthday.yahoo.com/netrospective/
