You did nothing wrong! I was unable to attach to it myself via the  
nwzhome terminal server. The problem was with the security  
configuration of the samba server allowing only certain Ip subnets to  
access the server. Unfortunately the two Windows PCs and the Mac in  
my office are in the correct subnet to access nwzlinux so I did not  
recognize there was a problem. I fixed it by extending the hosts  
allow in the smb.conf to 128.176.0.0/255.255.0.0. Does it work O.K.  
for you now?

To all:

If there are additional private IP subnets in use (10.something or  
172.something or whatever) anywhere in IVV-4 please notify  
IVVNWZ at ..., so we can include these subnets in any further tcpwrapper  
etc. and/or firewall configurations. Do so especially, when you set  
up new private IP subnets together with NOC. I can "easily" find out  
all the IP adresses in use at a certain time via NIC_Online in at  
least the biology, chemistry and physics department, but I would  
rather not do this lot of work and certainly not update that  
information on a daily basis.

Kind regards and sorry for any inconvenience caused


Heinz-Hermann
