Communitation issue

[waldkos]

Hi Guys !

First of all; I'm new to NetWare so if my question is silly please forgive me .
The problem looks as follow:
In my local network I've got 2 subnets:
192.168.1.0/24
192.168.2.0/24
The NetWare server is placed in first subnet.
End users are on both subnets. The problem is when I move end user from first subnet to the other. In this case all mapped disks are not longer available. Furthermore the server doesn’t reply on ping request from hosts in second subnet. All other communication in working.

From my point of view it looks like the NetWare server accepts the communication only from 192.168.1.0/24.

Do you have any ideas how to deal with this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Are you allowing the routing of NCP (port 524) between subnets??

Is your netware server set up correctly to communicate on the two subnets via a routing entry????? I think you need a static route set up on the server.

Load INETCFG then open Protocols, TCP/IP, LAN Static Routing Table, then Insert, and add your new route (Network, Subnet Mask, Next Hop).

If I'm way off base here, do some ping tests and post results.

From Client in 1.0 to server
From Client in 2.0 to server
From Server to client in 1.0 subnet
From Server to client in 2.0 subnet

to add to goombawaho's test requests, also do a client in 192.168.1.x subnet to a client in the 192.168.2.x subnet.

If your clients can ping each other with out issue, then following the instructions goombawaho gave you, check your default route and make sure the NetWare server has the same default route as the workstations.

If your client's CAN'T ping each other on the two subnets, that tells me you never setup routing on your network.
