Hi. I have a network that is segregated with VLAN. In one of the VLAN I have a SAMBA PDC running. I want computers from others VLAN's to authenticate in this PDC. Is there anyway to make my PDC server work without forwarding the UDP broadcast ports (137, 138)? Thanks. Diego Ramos
This is, first of all, dependent on your network configuration and hardware. Do you have layer 3 (ip routing) switches? Mark.

That's the setup we have here and it's fine. Cheers Alex -- Alex Harrington - Network Development Manager Longhill High School t: 01273 391672 e: alex@longhill.org.uk
