My VPN Address is in a Virtual Pool on the Firewall I am using. I am able to connect to any other server other than a Samba server. If it was a network related issue would it not be having a problem on all the servers?

I only ask because in our company, our VPN segment is isolated with it's own DNS servers. My guess is that when you come in via VPN, you are using a different DNS server and you are not registered. Instead, you are using NetBIOS for name resolution. Try putting an A host record on the DNS server used by your VPN server. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of James Taylor Sent: Friday, February 03, 2006 6:43 PM To: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: [Samba] SAMBA netbois lookup issues Hi all! I am from the Windows world and am trying to migrate to Linux and have done a fairly good job so far. My recent challenge is that I have built a Samba file/print server that works very well on my internal network but when I VPN into the network remotely I am unable to access the server via it's server name. What is driving me crazy is the fact that the last of my Windows servers is a file/print server as well and I am able to access it without issues. Is this a simple NetBios Port change or is this something else that I am missing? If anyone has some pointers as to what I can do to resolve this issue I would be grateful.
