I have a strange problem that's causing me a lot of trouble. Since the network engineering help line was, shall we say to be polite, something less than helpful, I thought I'd run it up the flagpole here. We recently installed a Netware 6.5 server with the same static address as the Netware 4.11 server it replaced: 35.8.232.2 With 6.5, many things that used to use IPX or Appletalk are now done via tcp/ip. If a client has a MSU DHCP assigned address in the 35.10.x.x range, they cannot access server resources or even ping 35.8.232.2, although they can ping other 35.8.x.x addresses just fine. All other ip addresses, on and off campus, *can* see this server, just not the 35.10.x.x addresses that most of my clients are assigned. If I manually add a statement to the routing table of each client, then these clients can see the server, but that's only a bandaid solution, particularly since I don't think there's a way to add a permanent route on Win98 machines. And I'd really rather not give all of my clients static 35.8.x.x addresses. I've tried adding a variety of routing statements on the server itself, but nothing seems to make a difference. Besides, it's not a router and shouldn't have to handle much in the way of routing tasks, should it? Any thoughts would be very much appreciated!
