Hi!
Basically that is my particular issue, adding that I've set it up over
openvpn as well, to the same server.

[win -> linux]
- see public (for existing users) shares and try to enter them  
- when asked for user and password, can see the contents of the public
share along with my home folder
- can see the shared local printer, and open and view current print
jobs on the server (cannot print tough, will write another post about
that)


[linux to linux]
- try to access the server via smbclient -L and can see shares ok
- from nautilus, with the address smb://10.22.22.1 can see the public
shares, but it won't let me in, asking for user, workgroup and password
no matter what type.

Huges, peace, love and beer for everyone!

Go over the HowTo: http://opensuse.swerdna.org/suselanprimer.html
If you can still not get it to work then please post your /etc/samba/smb.conf
files from both linux machines.  Make sure to create Samba users on each
linux machine with:
[code]
su
smbpasswd -a <username>
[/code]

Thanks!
Well... I have revised those tutorials and I think I don't get it
work.
Please note that at this time I'm in other office so I'm doing all test
over the vpn. The vpn is actually the only case that interest me to
work.

Perhaps I can revert smb.conf on the server to the version in which
doing smbclient -U walter -L 10.22.22.1 used to list my shares on my
terminal. I was not aware that I needed to do anything on the client's
smb.conf, so mine is the default of opensuse 11.3 and smb is not enabled
as a service.

Now I've changed the ip address of the vpn server to 10.14.18.1.

I apologize if I didn't explained well. I have two issues I've separated
from each other in the aim of keep a post topic unique.

1. The print from windows issue [http://tinyurl.com/28vnf2d]
2. The case of this post: linux to linux from my linux laptop to the
linux server trhough openvpn, provided that openvpn and samba are being
used with no problem.

Set the workgroup parameter in both smb.conf to the same value.   I would
suggest you change the workgroup parameter of the client to:
[code]
workgroup = COMINGSA.NET
[/code]  

Assuming the client and server are on the same subnet (either both on
192.168.1.0/24 or both on 10.14.18.0/24, then also on the client set this
parameter:
[code]
 name resolve order  = bcast host lmhosts wins
[/code]

If they are on different subnets, names can not be resolved by bcast and the
easiest way is to use a wins server.  In this case modify the smb.conf on the
server by adding/editing to:
[code]
wins support = yes
name resolve order = wins bcast host lmhosts
[/code]

And on the client change the smb.conf to have:
[code]
wins server = <IP of server>
name resolve order = wins bcast host lmhosts
[/code]

You will also need to have the network config on your windows machines point
to your wins server.  If you use dhcp for the windows machines, the wins
server can be dished out by the dhcp server. Make sure the IP of the server
stays the same.

Well thank you venzkep! Following your suggestions I modified them a
little and got his configuration that worked:

Server: I left bcast first in resolve order and wins last
Client: This is my [global] section
workgroup = WORKGROUP #the same as the server's
passdb backend = tdbsam
wins server = 10.14.18.1
name resolve order = wins bcast host lmhosts
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
printcap cache time = 750
cups options = raw
map to guest = Bad User
include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf
usershare allow guests = Yes


Best regards!

Glad to hear you have it all sorted out.  Happy to have helped.  I read your
private note, but felt it best to keep things on the forum just incase others
had similar problems.
