Re: samba problems
Hi,
Maybe I didn't explain very well (poor english mine!). As I said,
I have three NIC's (the linux is a masq machine). The tcp/ip part is
working ok, since all my internal machines can reach internet
(http,telnet,etc).
In the smb.conf I added the correct ip's for all interfaces. I
even can connect to winnt machines with smbclient. Better, I can connect
to machines in all three networks (192.168.9.0, 192.168.10.0 and
200.136.52.0) from the linux server. The problem is with the winnt
machines trying to connect to my linux box thru the valid ip. (one of my
nic's have a valid ip).
192.168.9.0
eth0---------|
|
192.168.10.0 |
eth1---------| |---winnt/win95-----------
| |
|valid ip |
|---eth2--------------|-winnt-------------
linux box
I thought MacAddr was the problem because it was the only
strange thing I could notice from the winnt machines outside my dept.
Wins is based in MacAddr, isn't it?
Should I put the linux box IP in the lmhosts of the wins
server? Could this help?
Thanks,
