Hello,
i'm trying to setup a samba file server, but i need your advices.
the goal of my setup is to share a folder from a linux server to windows
clients (for the moment i do my tests using smbclient on linux hosts).
The server and the client are on different subnets, but they can ping
themselves.
Samba is installed on the server (192.168.0.1/24), and smbclient is
available on the client (192.168.1.1/24), connected thru a gateway.
the problem is that i can't connect to the server from another subnet
via samba.
here is smb.conf from the server (taken from the o'reilly book 'using
samba'):
[global]
netbios name = server
workgroup = GARDEN
wins support = yes
dns proxy = yes
[test]
comment = For testing only, please
path = /export/tmp
read only = no
server side:
[r...@server etc]# ping client
PING client (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from client (192.168.1.1): icmp_seq=1 ttl=63 time=0.924 ms
[r...@server etc]# smbclient -L server -N

[r...@client]# smbclient -L server -N
Connection to hercule failed (Error NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL)
when i connect from another client (located on the server's subnet, ie
192.168.0.2/24), it works:
-bash-3.2$ smbclient -L server -N
Anonymous login successful
Domain=[GARDEN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.37]

To resume my problem, i can not connect to a samba server from a client
located on another subnet.
Thank for your help.
