Windows Sharing & Network Printing
Posted: Tue Apr 25, 2006 6:46 pm
I have a RB that is running 2.9.11.
I have ether2 & wlan1 bridged and using the same DHCP server. So all the clients are on the same subnet. I'm using this in my office and I want the wireless users to be able to see all the Windows shared folders, network printers, etc. But I can't seem to get any of the wireless devices to see any of the shared devices on the ether2 side.
Is there some trick to making this work? I have read about people turning off forwarding so others can't see devices in My Network Places. But I want to see them and cant...
If you have any advice I would appreciate it!
