I've also tried not using samba as a WINS server, pointing both samba and XP clients to other WINS servers in the WAN, but that doesn't work either. What other WINS servers do you have? How is WINS replication configured? We currently have one wins server in our subnet, that is the samba PDC (when it's wins support = yes). Before I set up samba as a PDC WINS server, there were 0 wins servers in our subnet. I prefer not to have a wins server in our subnet. Our old NT4 PDC (not a wins server) and XP clients have always pointed to wins servers outside our subnet but on our WAN, and the NT4 PDC has always kept a perfect browse list of all domains in the WAN. I don't know what wins replication is but now that you've mentioned it I'll look into it. Hopefully that's my problem and fixing that will make the browse list work correctly. Thanks! Alex - John T. Thanks for the tip though. Any more? Alex I have a similar problem, except I'm not going through a VPN, I'm in a university WAN. My samba PDC cannot get the browse list of any domains outside of my subnet. I've gotten some responses saying you should just be able to see the browse list no problem, others saying they can't see the browse list. Documentation on this is terrible. Commands I've used to troubleshoot are: findsmb, nmblookup and smbclient -L, but all they tell me is what I already know: my nmbd cannot get the browse list from any domains outside of my own subnet yet still in the WAN. Interestingly, I have an NT 4 PDC on the same subnet which can do exactly that: it see's every domain in the WAN. In all other respects samba PDC works perfectly, but if I can't fix this browse list issue, we can't replace our windows PDC with samba. If you find the solution, please let me know. I'll do the same. If you find any additional troublshooting tools, please let me know. Alex On Tue, 10 May 2005, Craig Main wrote: Hi All, I have a openvpn setup between two Linux boxes.
