netbios name no longer working after IP address change
We have a simple network of mostly composed of Win98/WinXP computers and a
"server" running Win2K pro with "computer name" fbasvr1 I made a change to the network that involved using a DSL router as an internet gateway, NAT server and DHCP server. - before, I was using fbasvr1 as a dhcp server handing out address 192.168.0.### - Now the router is handing out addresses like 10.0.0.# - fbasvr1 used to have address 192.168.0.24 now it has address 10.0.0.2 Everything is working fine except that computers on the network still think that fbasvr1 has the 192. address instead of the 10. address. Also, when I ghost machine on the network and use a boot CD "Ultimate Book Disk" to gain network access. I used to be able to do: net use g: \\fbasvr1\ghost this also no longer works. There is no "wins" server running on the network. Questions: - Why do computer on the network still think that fbasvr1 has the old address? - Is there a "standard procedure" for make the changes that I needed to make? any help would be appreciated. gkelly |

Hi GKelly,
You really have two options here. 1. Stop the DHCP service on the router and tell it that its internal network is your 192.168.0.0/24 (I am assuming the subnet mask is normal for a class C) 2. Turn off DHCP on the "server" make sure that there are no references to the 192.168.0.0/24 network in your DNS or LMHOSTS files. You would then either need to make DNS entries for the 10.0.0.0/8 network or try to rely on the NetBIOS MasterBrowser for naming. Go with option 1 if possible. It'll be easier. -- Ryan Hanisco MCSE, MCDBA Flagship Integration Services "gkelly" wrote in message ...

DHCP is no longer running on the server (fbasvr1) and we do not run our own
dns server nor have I hardcoded entries in the lmhosts files. I'll try the other solution though. thanks. gkelly "Ryan Hanisco" wrote in message ... Hi GKelly, You really have two options here. 1.
