If I understand your post correctly, you are creating a single (lan-to-lan)
VPN between linux1 and linux2 boxes so that clients on either LAN can route
data between each other. If thats the case... When you configured Samba:
1) Did you enable "wins support" ? i.e. WINS server
2) Are the Windows systems configured to register with that WINS server.
i.e. Did you specify the address of the WINS servers in
network->tcp/ip->properties
3) Have you enabled "remote browse sync" between the two WINS servers? Type:
man smb.conf for further info
