I am trying to map a drive on my Windows 2000 server to one of my 5 Netware servers on my WAN - I am able to map to 3 of my Netware servers on my WAN but for some reason I cannot see 2 of my servers?

Any ideas?
 
check from DNS (if it is on W2K server) whether they use IP of IPX protocol between DNS and Netware
 
Can't see? Could you clarify that please, whats the error you get when mapping a drive?
Does the 2000 server have Microsoft CSNW or the Novell Client installed?
When you map the drive have you tried using the IP address as well as the server name?
 
tried mapping using Ip and server name - no good? Something like location cannot be found??

As I said - for some reason I can see three of my Netware servers with the W2k Netware client installed but two won't let me go beyond the top level of the volume (I have full permissions) - I can ping them etc - Do you think it may be and IPX issue? IPX protocol is installed - is there anything I may need to tweak?
