[pptp-server] Viewing SAMBA share via PPTP

[George Vieira]

I don't think it's a good idea to give a client the same IP as the Server,
did you notice that?

Every connection will fail because of it.. this is one problem I can see..
may not be the big one but maybe the next one...

Try changing the remoteip to 

remoteip 192.168.254.101-110

I have a PoPToP server running on my SuSE 7.2 server configured as
follows: 

#pptpd.conf
speed 115200
option /etc/ppp/options.ppp0
debug
localip 192.168.254.100
remoteip 192.168.254.100-110

#options.ppp0
lock
debug
auth
+chap
+chapms
+chapms-v2
mppe-40
mppe-128
mppe-stateless
name ids
proxyarp


My server is behind a FlowPoint 2200 using NAT to forward PPTP to server
(permits ONE client at a time only)  

I can successfully connect to the server using a WinME client over the
internet, but cannot browse the SAMBA partition, or even aquire the
NetBIOS name......  I've open up the SAMBA partition up w/ no security
in order to test, yet still can't see partition- AND when I "Search for
Computers" from the windows client I get NO activity showing in the byte
counts displayed by the VPN connection monitor...

FYI, here's my smb.conf, too...
[global]
security = share
workgroup = ids
browse list = yes

[home]
guest ok = yes
read only = no
path = /samba_share

Any ideas-  I'm sorry if this is an obvious problem to the experienced;
but, I just don't get it...

TIA,

-Allen Moore
