[Samba] samba needed to network across openvpn tunnel
I have been assued in other places that I need to have Samba and Wins in place touse Windows networking across an openvpn tunnel. back history: There was a network in place when I was hired to replace the former it guy. All ran very smooth with only one networking issue. There were "fights" between the Windows server and the Linux box: The master browser has received a server announcement from the computer MAIL that believes that it is the master browser for the domain on transport NetBT_Tcpip_{7678958F-827A-4381-B5B6. The master browser is stopping or an election is being forced. There were two locations (office and school) with windows boxes on 3 subnets talking across an openvpn tunnel built on two FC4 servers. there is a Microsoft Small Business Server 2003 installed at each end to handle the users as seperate domains. HSP and CRAGMART. All mail is handled by the office SBS (HSP). The system worked great until I had a server cracked at the office end. The school end was not touched. The damage was limited to the one server (whew!). The server has been rebuilt with debian etch and I have the tunnel working great. The old filesystem is intact and configuration files are availible. Office subnet 192.168.1.x School subnets 192.168.19.x 1 92.168.10.x I can communicate over tcp/ip fine from the office to the school and vice versa. from 192.168.1.x I can get to the SBS server at \\192.168.19.3 but not by \\cserver from 192.168.19.x I cannot get to the SBS server at \\192.168.1.3 or by \\server. There is no windows browsing across the openvpn tunnel, everything is normal within the seperate domains. I have tried resolving this on irc.feenode.net #samba here is the smb.conf for the server before it was cracked: It did not work on this install. **************************************** # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 192.168.1.112 (192.168.1.112) # Date: 2006/04/18 11:10:34 [global] workgroup = HSP realm = SERVER.HSP.LOCAL netbios aliases = ntserver server string = Samba Server security = ADS log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = /etc/printcap dns proxy = No wins support = Yes ldap ssl = no cups options = raw [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No [c$] path = / admin users = ntemple, mc, root read list = ntemple, mc, root write list = ntemple, mc, root [music] path = /home/jukebox/www/html/songs guest ok = Yes [install] path = /usr/local/share/unattended/install admin users = ntemple, mc write list = ntemple, mc ************************************************* here is a recent variation that was configured with swat> it did not work *********************************************** # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 192.168.1.100 (192.168.1.100) # Date: 2007/01/04 12:12:14 [global] workgroup = HSP realm = SERVER.HSP.LOCAL netbios aliases = ntserver server string = Samba Server security = DOMAIN password server guest account = local_user log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50000 name resolve order = wins lmhosts host bcast socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = /etc/printcap dns proxy = No wins server = 192.168.1.3 ldap ssl = no username = brk, mc, root, ntemple, bries-knight admin users = brk, mc, root, ntemple, bries-knight hosts allow = 192.168.10., 192.168.19., 127., 192.168.1. cups options = raw [root] path = / username = root ntemple mc bries-knight admin users = mc, root, ntemple, bries-knight write list = mc, root, ntemple, bries-knight [base] path = / username = root ntemple mc bries-knight admin users = mc, root, ntemple, bries-knight write list = mc, root, ntemple, bries-knight [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No [c$] path = / admin users = ntemple, mc, root read list = ntemple, mc, root write list = ntemple, mc, root [music] path = /home/jukebox/www/html/songs guest ok = Yes [install] path = /usr/local/share/unattended/install admin users = ntemple, mc write list = ntemple, mc ****************************************************************** -- -- Bill Ries-Knight Stockton, CA Respect the process, Vote.
