Topic: Samba over WIFI on Asus Wl-500gP

Hi,
Can anybody tell me why i cannot access samba oper wifi? If I use ethernet everything works fine.
Should I add any rules to firewall?

If you have lan & wlan bridged, you don't need additional iptables rules.
If you have distinct interfaces, with different IPs, you have to set up the same rules as for the lan interface (if you want this), and you may need to reconfigure samba too.

I am stupid... I had disable "MS network client" on my PC...

Well, I have two interfaces now - lan and bt0 (bluetooth pan). What rules should I add to the firewall and how to reconfigure samba?

Thanks
