[Samba] unable to have smb listen on NIC tun0 or 10/8 IP addres
Hi everybody and merry Chrissy! I have smb listening to two interfaces and with tun0 this failed. Package was from Debian 7 - 2:3.6.6-6+deb7u4 # smbclient //10.9.8.1/public -Unot_a_user Enter not_a_user's password: Connection to 10.9.8.1 failed (Error NT_STATUS_CONNECTION_REFUSED) # smbclient //127.0.0.1/public -Unot_a_user Enter not_a_user's password: Domain=[WORKGROUP] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.6.6] smb: \> quit This was my config: # cat smb.conf [global] workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = %h server ; wins server = w.x.y.z dns proxy = no ; name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast disable netbios = yes ; interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0 interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 10.9.8.0/8 ;interfaces = tun0 lo bind interfaces only = yes log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 syslog = 0 panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d encrypt passwords = true passdb backend = tdbsam obey pam restrictions = yes unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . pam password change = yes map to guest = bad user [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no read only = yes create mask = 0700 directory mask = 0700 valid users = %S [public] path = /samba/public_data guest ok = yes read only = no I can see smb listening on tcp: smbd 24992 root 27u IPv4 3142594262 0t0 TCP localhost.localdomain:445 (LISTEN) smbd 24992 root 28u IPv4 3142594263 0t0 TCP localhost.localdomain:139 (LISTEN) and nmb udp was disabled. However when I changed , interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 10.9.8.0/8 to interfaces = 10.9.8.0/8 and I tried also with interfaces = tun0 Nothing was listening with lsof! The NIC this should come from is : # ifconfig tun0 tun0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 inet addr:10.9.8.1 P-t-P:10.9.8.2 Mask:255.255.255.255 UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:215 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:162 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:100 RX bytes:52569 (51.3 KiB) TX bytes:17103 (16.7 KiB) If somebody has some festive spirit left I'd be really grateful if they'd point out my configuration mistake! :) Kind regards, Sophie.
