Hello debian-user, Does anybody know how to allow broadcast UDP packets pass through a router (with NAT) on 2.2r2 (2.2 kernel)?
Actually the problem concernes Samba - I have 2 networks - internal and external, a router with Samba server between them. I want to be able to see the outside computers from the inside. I know that WINS is the best solution but I have no administrative rigths in the external network. Users there use broadcasts and different workgroups. As my local master is set to the router machine I can see all these workgroups in my internal network neighborhood, but resolving is a problem. Static WINS records are also not a good way because the external network always changes. So I presume there's only one way - allowing broadcasts from inside to outside with addressed replies back. All your ideas are welcome. Thanks. -- Best regards, Anton mailto:verik@;redline.ru -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
