Having difficulty accessing samba shares via a VPN. The Windows client connects OK to VPN and obtains the appropriate IP but I cannot browse the samba shares. I can access the zentyal dashboard via the browser on the VPN IP address.
I have opened the inward VPN port on the fire wall and the outward port is enabled as "any service" to "any port". I have tried disabling the windows firewall which made no difference.
I have PAM enabled to give real local user accounts.
The documentation here
http://doc.zentyal.org/en/vpn.html?highlight=vpn says:
Also, to browse shared files from the VPN [3] you must explicitly allow the broadcast traffic of the Samba server.
but I am not sure how to do this?
Also do I need to open any other ports either on the firewall or the router other than for the VPN?
Does the zentyal server need to be a PDC?
Does the remote windows PC need to be in the same workgroup or domain as the zentyal VPN server?
The remote PC is connecting through a HTTP proxy, will this make a difference?
Grateful for any help, I think I'm very close to making it work!
Thanks
