Greetings: I have setup a Samba Server to be used as a documentation repository. The IP address of the server resides in 192.168.1.x I have several Windows XP workstations that reside in the 192.168.1.x network and have no problem accessing the shares on the Samba Server. I have several Windows XP workstations that reside in the 192.168.2.x network that will show the Samba Server in the network neighborhood; however, I get "access denied" errors trying to access it. The following is my smb configuration: # smb.conf is the main Samba configuration file. You find a full commented # version at /usr/share/doc/packages/samba/examples/smb.conf.SUSE if the # samba-doc package is installed. # Date: 2006-06-16 [global] workgroup = PRECISIONARCH printing = cups printcap name = cups printcap cache time = 750 cups options = raw map to guest = Bad User include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile logon drive = P: idmap gid = 10000-20000 idmap uid = 10000-20000 realm = PRECISIONARCH.COM security = ADS template homedir = /home/%D/%U template shell = /bin/bash winbind refresh tickets = yes domain logons = No domain master = No passdb backend = smbpasswd wins support = No winbind offline logon = yes add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %m$ usershare max shares = 100 hosts allow = 192.168.1. 192.168.2. server string= Document-Server [homes] comment = Home Directories valid users = %S, %D%w%S browseable = No read only = No inherit acls = Yes [profiles] comment = Network Profiles Service path = %H read only = No store dos attributes = Yes create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 [users] comment = All users path = /home read only = No inherit acls = Yes veto files = /aquota.user/groups/shares/ [groups] comment = All groups path = /home/groups read only = No inherit acls = Yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/tmp printable = Yes create mask = 0600 browseable = No [print$] comment = Printer Drivers path = /var/lib/samba/drivers write list = @ntadmin root force group = ntadmin create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 [netlogon] comment = Network Logon Service path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon write list = root could someone please help me determine why the computers on the 192.168.2.x subnet cannot access the Samba server. Thanks.

You could try grepping them with: grep "192.168.2." /var/log/samba/* and see if there is any helpful information (there usually is).
