Network Share Across 2 ip ranges
-
If there is no nat between a and b, just create a rule to allow access from a to b.
Aldo check if host in both networks know how to reach a and b.
-
How would this affect the proxy then?
Would it mean then that the pfsense firewall on a @10.1.0.1 and on b @10.2.0.1 would be reachable so users on subnet b can bypass the proxy?
-
If your file server is not a http server, proxy server will not help.

Good to know.
I am currently setting up NAT. What protocol would i need to allow for the mapping to be successful?
What protocol do computers use to find and map shared directories on the network?
-
Map sharing? Is it windows sharing?
If your share is from M$, the best way is routing instead of nat.
-
Its a samba file server.
All the machines on the network i am trying to share the file with are linux machines.
I hope that made sense
-
Samba works the same way as m$.
135-139 udp and tcp
445 tcp/udp -
Ok so you recon i then nat the fileserver onto the 2nd network or would routing be more effective?
-
It's up to you. Both will work for only one file server
-
Thanks. I will give NAT a go and let you know if i get it working.
