Re: Windows file sharing over different subnets

Hi,

Netbios is not routable (without help.) Make sure iptables is allowing port 139 and make sure both network segments share a common wins server. This is painfully obvious, but, can you ping from one segment to the other segment?

Have fun.

Hello,

I'm faced with a problem on my network, I'll start by describing the
structure. The router is a redhat box, with 3 network cards:
eth0 goes to the dsl modem, ppp0
eth1 goes to the 192.168.1.0 network which contains a Windows 2000 file
server (192.168.1.3)
eth2 goes to 192.168.2.0 which contains windows clients, mostly Win98

Is it possible to allow clients to see/use the file server? what I have
done so far is add "option netbios-name-servers 192.168.1.3;" to
dhcpd.conf and issue the following on the gateway:

ip route add 224.0.0.0/4 dev eth1
route add -net 255.255.255.255 netmask 255.255.255.255 eth1

tcpdump shows some activity when trying to browse network neighborhood
from the fileserver:

This goes on for a while, after which win2k says "192.168.2.2" cannot be
found. Browsing from the client 192.168.2.2 yields no results.

Any ideas/hints greatly appreciated.
