[Openvpn-users] Newbie question: Samba with OpenVPN and DNS names

Hello,

I went through the HOWTOs and set up OpenVPN on a SuSE Linux 9.3 Server with five Windows XP SP2 clients.
My setup is very close to the sample and it works well. I can connect to Samba on the Linux server with \\10.x.x.1\sharename, but I cannot reach the server using \\servername\sharename. 

I could add the server name to the hosts file of the Windows XP clients, but thats not the smart solution, isn't it?
Is there a simple solution?


Thanks for your replies in advance,
