Well, I don't have service pak 5, but my NT 3.51 client is able to make a share connection over TCP/IP using the PATHWORKS cluster alias name. I know the WfW IP stack won't work (a MS issue). I've seen notes in this conference indicating Win95 and WNT v4.0 IP won't work if WINS is enabled (again, a MS issue). Perhaps the IP stack in sp5 is similar to that in nt v4.0???? and so sp5 suffers the same problems????? My inclination, though, is that the nt v4.0 ip stack is all new, but I'm not sure... One thing you might try - from a cluster node running pwrks do: $ nbshow knbstatus <nt-client-computername> Do you get a response? Can the NT client connect if it uses a specific hostname instead of the alias name? Does $ NBSHOW KNBSTATUS list the alias name? Paul | |||||

the nbshow knbstatus does not work i tried it in our lab and none of the working pc respond.ANd yes the client can connect by the node name only. |
