Good evening, folks.
I have installed ubuntu 7.10 with samba. I opened my firewall to samba traffic
(using Firestarter). But something is still not right.
My configuration: Ubuntu server with samba as the domain controller, and then
two Windows boxes connected by a wireless internet connection. One of these --
call it clientB -- has the printer attached to it.
As things now stand, I can see everything on clientB from clientA, and can print
from ClientA. I can also see the two file shares on the ubuntu server from both
clientA and clientB. From client B I can see the server shares and the clientA
shares. The only thing that isn't working is that I cannot see from the server
the shares (including the shared printer) on either clientA or clientB. Of
course, therefore, I cannot print from the server.
So, in sum, the only thing not working is that I cannot see any of the shares
from the server itself.
Any suggestions to fix this?
Many thanks in advance.
