VPN and Samba

[Nathan England]

All,

I have the VPN working now, seemingly correctly. I establish the connection 
from network A to network B. From network A I can ping any computer in 
network B, but network B cannot ping anything in network A.

The major problem is file sharing. I can see all the computers in network B 
from network A, but when I try to connect to them it just times out. From 
linux I get this:

[user at host ~]# smbclient -U% -L \\machine-name
Connection to machine-name failed

[user at host ~]# smbclient -U% -L \\192.168.1.16
protocol negotiation failed

Any ideas why? I shouldn't need to open any ports or anything should I? 
We have two vpns setup, it all works under one vpn but not under the new one 
we are trying to setup. We want to replace the original with a new one...
