Re: [Samba] Re: Configuring a samba server with two NICs
Most of my samba servers have had four NICs in them for at least a decade. Several have six. --Charlie On Sat, Jun 14, 2008 at 4:55 AM, John Drescher <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> No: I am trying to access it using a file manager. >> When I will be back at office, on monday, I will try also using the >> ipaddress. >> > I meant using file manager.

Instead of clicking on network neighborhood or typing the name try the full unc path of the share using the ipadress instead of the name. If that does not work turn off the ipaddress restrictions and see if it works that way. I know samba works with multiple networks because at work we have a gigabit network and a 100mbit one as well. And both networks connect to several of the samba servers and the clients on either side can use the shares fine.

No: I am trying to access it using a file manager. When I will be back at office, on monday, I will try also using the ipaddress.

If I configure samba to listen only on eth0 (my laptop connected via a crossover cable), then I can access the shared dir. If that matters, I also configured ip masquerading so that from the laptop I can access the internet via the desktop.

None of the 2 nics is a gigabit... :-(( > However I may be wrong as I was a little confused with the > discussion of the two networks and their purpose. Maybe I didn't explain well myself, sorry. My principal aim is simply to share the same directory over the two networs: everything else is unessential. They can also be invisible to each other. What I got with my config is that my shared dir is accessible on eth1 (where I just allow 3 IPs), but it is not on eth0 (my laptop).
