Dave, I went through this exercise some months back. The problem we
ran into was that the wired and wireless subnets broke Windows file
sharing. We got most of the way there, but due to family harmony, I
had to abandon the testing I was doing before I could test a full
solution. Search for my posts in the archives and you'll see where
the problem may have been resolved.
But I won't try this again until the next CeroWRT release. I backed
off to Open WRT for the time being, which doesn't have the issue.
I'd like to think the samba + routing issue is resolved - the new samba 3.6.3 package has been highly tuned and optimized by several core members of the openwrt team, and I'm now including it by default in the current cerowrt 3.3 builds.
But, I'd like to actually be testing Jim's scenario before I say it's fixed, and that awaits a rebuild of bloatlab 1.
Many other things are in flux, but settling down rapidly.
I hope to have gathered the final requirements for the next
release by the end of next week, and to start producing
truly usable-as-your-default-router builds...
as soon as I start getting those builds into the new, improved
and updated bloatlab #1... and a couple other things land...
which I hope would be in about a month.
In the meantime I note that more cerowrt news and traffic can be had on the cerowrt-devel list, and needent be on 'bloat'. We're also trying to get better about putting out news on the site, as well.
