AS400 Domain Membership

[djrampant]

We have an AS400 on our network that is supported by a 3rd party.

Recently we have migrated multiple NT domains into just 2 to make our administration simpler.

However we still have one of the old domains showing in the network browser.

After hours of investigation we have pin-pointed this to the AS400.

When i run a scan on our network it shows the AS400 being a member of domain that has been removed.

Can anyone tell me how to view the network settings on the AS400 itself, or even better tell me how to change its domain membership.

Thanks

Darren.

I believe you should be able to change it in Operations Navigator.

The DSPNETA command should give you some information as well.

I should have stated that I have no AS400 knowledge so will need basic instructions.
Thanks

I have looked at both previos answers.
neither of these show the domain it is displaying.

In Ops Navigator, Choose your system, then Network | Servers | TCP/IP. Right click on AS/400 NetServer and choose Properties. It may be different for you, but click on the "Next Start" button. That allows you to change the Domain. I would recommend you to have your AS/400 administrator change it if you are unsure.

Hi there,
I have looked at the AS400 and the NetServer service isn't running.

I would love to have "your AS/400 administrator change it if you are unsure" but we dont even have one!!

What version of Client Access are you running? 3.2?

I should say do you use Client Access or Client Access Express?

Try this:

CHGTCPDMN (Change TCP/IP Domain) then hit [F4].
Verify the settings for the hostname, domain name, IP address, etc. They should be listed here.

Press [ENTER] to change.

Hope that helps.

Hi jrjuiliano

We are using Client Access Express 4.3

I have looked at the settings you said but this doesnt show the netbios domain name.

All references on the AS400 point to cateringandallied.com

The domain that appears on the scan is CASDOM.

There are no references to CASDOM in our wins or dns either as I have cleared them out and checked them through.

Thanks

Darren

Well, if NetServer isn't running and you don't have the origonal CA. Then I don't know how it can even be listed under "Netword Neighborhood". I would do the "In Ops Navigator, Choose your system, then Network | Servers | TCP/IP. Right click on AS/400 NetServer and choose Properties. It may be different for you, but click on the "Next Start" button. That allows you to change the Domain." anyways and see if that fixes it.

Hi there, sorry for the delay in replying.

I have done some further investigation and have ran the nbtstat command from windows. It seems that the AS400 is broadcasting its address over the subnet it is sat in.

If i look at a server in the same subnet I am able to search for the AS400 using the find computers option in windows.

However if I try this outside the subnet I find nothing due to the broadcasts being blocked by our routers.

The output from nbtstat is below.

Any ideas??
