I've get an box laying in my basement running OpenBSD 3.7 (probably
should upgrade that some time but I've never taken the time) acting as
gateway for both wired and wireless networks. Everything has been
working flawlessly except one thing; I can not access computers on the
wireless network from the wired one or vice versa. This has not been
much of a problem since I'm mostly connecting via the wired network but
now my mother has gotten herself a laptop and she wishes to be able to
access another computer to print. Most computers (are not mine) and run
Windows.
I have three NICs in the box, two rl(4) and one ath(4), rl1 is connected
to the Internet and rl0 and ath0 are the local networks. As I understand
things I need to bridge the two local NICs somehow to be able to access
computers on both networks seamlessly, however I recall trying that once
but with no success. Obviously I did something wrong, so I'd hope that
someone might be able to explain to me how to set up the network.
First of all it seems like I was a bit vague about the problem, sorry
about that. I could ping between the two networks but "Windows
networking" (shared folders and printers) did not work. Fortunately some
of you managed to understand my problems nevertheless and I've now got a
working solution by bridging the two local networks.
Thank you all for your input, especially Chris Zakelj and Jeff Quast.
