Perhaps the share isn't enabled/allowed for 192.168.1.0/24 ?
Good point.
I wonder if the server will be confused with the many 192.168.1.0/24 subnets it will see, one per room. By default it would be made direct routing, maybe he needs NAT.
I'm confused.
I must say I am too at the brevity of the description and the ambiguity of the test. As I've pointed out before, the OP is good at short but inadequate or ambiguous descriptions. I gather that there is an existing wired network on place. I *suspect* that this is something like a school or educational establishment. I would like to know more about the wired network. What is its address range? Does each "room" (what is a room? classroom? lecture room?) have a single IP address at its outlet or is there a a subnet per room? If the latter what is it? is it a /24? I suppose one way of asking that is "How many users per room are supported? Is there just one master file server? perhaps there's a file server/service per room? Or per department? Or per floor? How is identification and authentication handled? Is there a separate domain controller? What's the (trace-) route to it from (each individual) the room? With and without wifi? If I were testing this I'd use some regular network testing/scanning tools to establish routing and mapping. Document everything. Look for inconsistencies or unexpected. First the 'backbone" without the wifi. Could I ping the relevant servers? Could the necessary protocols (for smb;// etc) get through ? Now layer on the wifi. Is the wifi router doing NAT? does that interfere with any of the protocols? Are delays being introduced? What the network map now? Does each room have its own discrete and individual subnet? As I've mentioned before, I'm obsessive about documenting and verifying each step along the way so that I can consider the implications and consequences and check out any hypothesis about why certain behaviours happen and determine what tests to perform and what the results of the tests will tell me, as opposed to just doing a "drunkard's walk" style test that I've seen so many of my peers perform! -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
