Lotus 4.6 / Windows NT Server 4.0 / RAS ???

[syndicate47]

I have mobile users that need to access a Notes server. I used to have Exchnage and all I did was setup dialup networking and connect onto the network via a RAS server ( the PDC )This worked well and my users could also browse the network if they wanted. When the Notes server came I thought it would be easy to do the same. The thing is, when users dial in, for some reason, they cannot see the Notes Server ( they can when on the LAN ) but they can see everyone else. Not only that, when they are on the network via RAS they stop every other computer on the LAN seeing the Notes Sever too!!! Also the Notes Sever cannot see the rest of the network! Once the mobile user is disconnected the LAN returns to normal.

Any Ideas

I don't think this is a Notes issue. You have something weird set up in your NT Server/RAS configuration. Make sure that you're RAS-assigned IP addresses don't conflict with those of your lan-based PCs. That would bring your network to its knees in a heartbeat.

I've done more R5 deployments than I care to think about.
