Samba runs over tcp and has no problem with routing. If you don't have the names in DNS, windows clients may try to resolve names through a broadcast protocal that won't traverse routers but should find a multi-homed server from any of it's interfaces. This sounds like a firewall issue to me. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
