Netbios with masquerading
« on: April 05, 2000, 07:18:40 PM »
I have an E-smith box between two local network. Eth0 is 192.168.0.10 and Eth1 is 192.168.3.10. From the network neighborhood of a win98 computer with ip address 192.168.0.30 for ex., i want to be able to see a computer or a printer on the 192.168.0.0 network.

What do i have to do ?

I presume that you mean, on the 192.168.3.0 network...

Firstly, you will need to make modifications to your system to operate in this rather different configuration. There is some documentation to assist you making custom modifications at http://www.e-smith.org/custom/ - make sure that you read and understand that.

The modifications you will need to make are firstly to do packet forwarding instead of IP masquerading. You make take further advice as to whether this is what you want, but I guess you want real bi-directional connections between the two nets, rather than a form of firewalling. Secondly, you will want to adjust the samba configuration (via template /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/smb.conf) to support remote subnet browsing. See the samba documentation in /usr/doc/samba* and http://www.samba.org/ for details.

Best wishes
