Hello, I have a customer who had two new NT4 systems. He installed PW32 on both the machines and this worked first time. He then installed eXcursion v3 on the machines. On one system this worked first time by simply adding the host name etc and all apps work. On the second machine this is not the case. When starting up an application it comes back saying remote host is unknown. We are able to ping the server and telnet into port 512. Apps can be fired back from the server to the client without any trouble. We have defined the server in the LMHOSTS file and this had no effect. The cust has done a fresh installation of eXcursion and TCP onto the client but this has not had any effect. Has anyone got any ideas ?? I cant undertsand why one machine wont run eXursion and the other one will when the machines are configured the same ?? Cheers Steve [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]

can you ping the remote host by name? forget LMHOSTS - does adding the remote host to the HOSTS file make any difference? (most eXcursion questions are best handled in the eXcursion notesfile, btw, NOTED::EXCURSION) | |||||

You canm ping it by name and it makes no difference whether the node is defined in the hosts file or not !!! I thought I out this in the eXcursion files - I shall cross post it. cheers Steve [Posted by WWW Notes gateway] | |||||

Is the PC configured to use a nameserver? Should it be? Is it defined
correctly?
