If you have no route to the network nothing will work. Samba is not a Gateway nor does it VPN connections or something like that. If your second network is a external one you will be better in the first with openvpn And set your routes to your needs. If your second network is internal you need to set up a gateway that can be reached from both Networks.

I want the samba server as a kind of a bridge between two networks, that the samba server only shares some of the shares provided by our file server to a second network. I don't want the samba srv to be a gw or give the clients a route to the internal network, because it is a total different user group. I first tried to do so with an msdfs root directory and symlinks but for sure it didn't work, because the clients don't have a route to the source server. But msdfs proxy doesn't work either: smb.conf: ------- [software-new] msdfs root = yes msdfs proxy= \gunter\software ------- When I try to access the share from a computer in the sec. network the log shows: ------- Client requested device type [?????] for share [SOFTWARE-NEW] refusing connection to dfs proxy share 'software-new' (pointing to \gunter\software) error packet at smbd/reply.c(803) cmd=117 (SMBtconX) NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME ------- The server is accessible from the samba box and smbclient connects fine: root@samba:~# smbclient -L '\\gunter' -U 'DOMAIN\micha' WARNING: The "idmap uid" option is deprecated WARNING: The "idmap gid" option is deprecated Enter DOMAIN\micha's password: Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Windows Server 2003 R2 3790 Service Pack 2] Server=[Windows Server 2003 R2 5.2] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- ... software Disk Software ... If I access the msdfs share from the sec. network (10.10.12.0) with an IP in the first network (10.10.10.0) then the connection redirects me to the gunter server and everything works, but I need a "proxy" not a standard msdfs redirect.
