Samba Over WAN
Hi, I recently setup Samba on my home network. It's working fine there and I can use all the shares normally.
What I would like to do now is be able to use those shares on my PC at work, or actually on any computer connected to the Internet.
My OS is SuSE 7.3 and I think I'm running Samba 2.0. I've opened ports 137-139 on my router.
I can ping the server, telnet to it, FTP to it and a number of other things, but I can't connect to a Samba share.
Any ideas would be great. Thanks!
