Re: tcpdump - laptop -2-

James,

>It's "1" on the firewall and "0" on the notebook, as expected.
Since there are two external network interfaces:
# echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
could help. See what happens.

** Samba config:
>> 4. the settings in your samba configuration file (notebook only) of:
>> hosts allow =, interfaces =, bind interfaces only = , socket options =
Try:
* specify the interfaces: (you can specify by device or by network..)
interfaces = cipcb0 lo
bind interfaces only = yes
* specify some sane socket options
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

** Run the samba test program testparm to check your smb config:
# testparm /path/to/smb.conf
There is a text file DIAGNOSIS.TXT describing step-by-step how to diagnose
problems with Samba. Consult it. An older version is available at:
http://us3.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/textdocs/DIAGNOSIS.txt
(And start the nmbd daemon in debug mode, to get more verbose output).

** Samba may have problems with the 255.255.255.255 netmasks on your cipcb0
and/or ppp0 devices, but hopefully testparm will tell you.

** Was SMBD running? And how-the-hell could you access smb-shares on your
notebook without smbd/nmbd running and without ports 137,138,139 somehow
active??
