243.0. "File share through the WAN?" by DEKVC::KEESANGLEE () Sat Apr 19 1997 00:06

hello.

	Does the Win95 pathworks32 client can access and use
	the Pathworks File share under WAN environment ?
	(When there is no Pathworks Server on the local LAN) 

	(customer Environment)
		+------------------+ 
                |  OpenVMS/Alpha   | Pathworks v5.0D(File Share)
		+------------------+ (DECnet,NetBEUI,Woolongong TCPIP)
			|               FDDI
	|=======================================|
			|
		+---------------+ 
		|  WANrouter	|
		+---------------+
			|		Ethernet
	|=======================================|
			|
		  +---------+ 
	 	  |  Win95  | Pathworks32  client(DECnet,NETBEUI,MS TCP/IP)
		  +---------+(No Pathworks server on the LAN)

	I failed to access the file share through the Router.
	When Win95 client use the File Share, NetBEUI is the only 
	Protocol ?
Regards.
Kee-Sang Lee.

sure.  If the WANrouter's passing IP, you may need to use the LMHOSTS 
file or a WINS server to define the address to use for your server's 
NetBIOS name(s). If it's passing DECnet, you may need to use the NCP 
DEFINE NODE and perhaps DEFINE REMOTE ADAPTOR NAME commands.
