Hi,

My network topology is as follows:

 Netgear                  Linksys
  DG632                    WRT54G
DSL Modem --- Switch --- WAP/Router
                |          (NAT)|
                |               |
           Samba server (dude)  +-- Win2000 PC 192.168.4.101 (Mum)
           192.168.1.5          |
                                +-- WinXP PC 192.168.4.100 (Tosh)

Dude is configured as follows:

# Global parameters
[global]
        workgroup = HOME
        server string = Samba Server
        guest account = ftp
        log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
        max log size = 50
        socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
        os level = 255
        domain master = Yes
        dns proxy = No
        wins support = Yes
        ldap ssl = no
        remote announce = 192.168.4.255 192.168.3.255
        remote browse sync = 192.168.4.255 192.168.3.255
        cups options = raw
        name resolve order = wins,lmhosts,host,bcast

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        read only = No
        browseable = yes

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No

[music]
        comment = Music files used by slimserver
        path = /home/slimserver/music
        write list = robin
        read only = No

[test]
        comment = Test share
        path = /home/test
        write list = robin
        read only = No

If I connect the WinXP machine to the 192.168.1.x network I can connect to and use the shares on the samba server.

However, when connected to the 192.168.4.x network I am unable to browse or connect to the shares.

If I give the full domain name of the samba server (dude.robinbowes.com) I can see the shares, e.g.:

C:\Documents and Settings\robin>net view \\dude.robinbowes.com
Shared resources at \\dude.robinbowes.com

Samba Server

Share name  Type  Used as  Comment

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
homes       Disk           Home Directories
music       Disk           Music files used by slimserver
robin       Disk           Home Directories
test        Disk           Test share
The command completed successfully.

Is there some way to enable browsing across the NAT-enable router?

Thanks,

R.
