If the IP address of eth1 is 192.168.1.42, eth1 is the IP address of the linux local connection, that is, the IP address of the samba server. Then, ping the linux IP address in windows to check whether the IP address can be pinged. If the IP address cannot be pinged, disable the firewall and try to disable the LINUX firewall. Command: # ufw disable note: ufw is a firewall operation command in linux. For related operations, you can view the Command help and ping the linux IP address in windows to check whether the ping is successful.
