On the two wired computers running Windows 7, in Windows Explorer I can see all the nodes on the system - themselves, OPENWRT (and its tmp directory) and the Windows 7 computer on the wireless network. However, I can't connect from the wired subnet to the wireless subnet by name: Windows can not access \\wirelesscomputer But Windows can get to it via its IP address: \\172.30.42.69 On the wireless computer, the only node I see is itself - I don't even see OPENWRT, and certainly don't see the computers on the wired subnet. - Jim On Tue, Nov 29, 2011 at 11:51 PM, Jim Reisert AD1C wrote: > I was close, but I then pushed my luck too far. > > Since the "openwrt" workgroup appeared to be working, I thought I > would name the "openwrt" workgroup back to "workgroup" (by editing > /etc/config/samba), to be compatible with the other computers in the > house. =A0In other words, I could swap my old router back in if needed, > and the local networking would still work (they wouldn't rely on an > openwrt master). =A0That was a mistake, I now couldn't set the first > computer to "workgroup" because it said there was another "workgroup" > already on the network (maybe my wife's computer, which hadn't been > re-configured for openwrt). =A0So I modified /etc/config/samba to use > "openwrt" again. =A0I shut down all the computers in the house, as well > as the router. =A0I rebooted the router and waited. =A0Then I rebooted my > PC which was previously working. > > I can see my own node in the Windows network but I no longer see the > "openwrt" node. =A0The wireless computer only sees itself, and the two > wired computers only see each other. =A0They no longer see the computers > on the other subnet (wired to wireless, and vice-versa). =A0I do see the > samba processes running on the router, so I have no idea what I broke. > > Very frustrating! > > - Jim > > On Tue, Nov 29, 2011 at 9:35 PM, Jim Reisert AD1C > wrote: >> I'm so close, see below: >> >> >> On Sat, Nov 5, 2011 at 2:51 AM, David T=E4ht wrote: >> >>> 1) install wins support with the samba3 package (via: >>> >>> =A0opkg update >>> =A0opkg install samba3 luci-app-samba >>> >>> (or install via the web interface) >> >> Done. >> >>> 2) configure it to be in the workgroup and announce on the subnets.
