Howdie,
I have a SAMBA file server (running on Linux of course ;-) which happily
serves all the *doze clients in the office. The same directories are
also exported via NFS.
We are using Checkpoint Firewall-1 and SecureRemote as VPN solution to
allow people to work from home. The problem is that *doze people trying
to access the SAMBA shares via the VPN get "no such network path"
although they are able to access an NT CIFS server without a problem.
Any other protocol (FTP, NFS, etc.) works great, we just can't get the
*doze client ot speak CIFS with the SAMBA via the VPN.
I have an evil feeling this has something to do with the WINS.
Does anyone has experience in making this work or at least has a
suggestion what might be the difference between the NT CIFS server and
the SAMBA one which manifests itself when using the VPN?
Many thanks!
