Hi, I have 3 Samba servers run Samba 2.0.7 on RH6.2, with Kernel 2.2.16-3.

Everything seems to be OK, except that my Win9x clients cannot see other
Win9x clients across the subnets.

Each server has 2 n/w cards installed, with IP Forwading enabled etc. If the
user knows the machine name, he can get access to the shared resources
across all 3 subnets, but using the n/w neighbourhood browser, shows only
those users on the same subnet.

All the Win9x clients are setup to use the same Workgroup, while the servers
are on a separate Workgroup. If this is the problem, how do I resolve this,
without changing the workgroups on each client or the servers?

Any help will be appreciated.

Regards
Enrico Payne
