I'm not sure how much this helps, especially since you can see the server in the SAP table, but can you do a novell ping from COUR002 to the server?
Are there any other users elsewhere that *are* able to access this server? John >>> "Fraasch James" 2/4/02 2:24:31 PM >>> This should be a good one. I switched out an old IBM 6611 for a Cisco 7204 this weekend. There is a point to point T-1 from COUR002 to COUR001. Encapsulation is still PPP (didn't want to change too much. IBM requires PPP encapsulation). People from the COUR002 router are not able to access a particular server hanging off a Token Ring port at COUR001. I do a show ipx servers on the COUR002 router and I see that the router is gettng the SAP advertisement from the server hanging off the other end of the link(as long as they are not left over from before this weekend). But my user on the COUR002 cannot get connected to the server like they were as of last Friday. Here are the configs for the involved ports: COUR001 interface TokenRing2/0 description 2nd floor ip address 172.25.30.200 255.255.255.0 ip directed-broadcast ipx encapsulation SNAP ipx network A00B ring-speed 16 interface Serial3/3 description Connection to Marina mac-address 0200.1099.4182 mtu 2044 ip address 172.25.252.249 255.255.255.252 ip directed-broadcast encapsulation ppp ipx network B048 ipx update interval rip 300 ipx update interval sap 300 nrzi-encoding COUR002: interface Serial0/0 mac-address 0200.1099.41c2 mtu 2044 ip address 172.25.252.250 255.255.255.252 no ip directed-broadcast encapsulation ppp ip ospf retransmit-interval 10 no ip mroute-cache no keepalive ipx network B048 ipx update interval rip 300 ipx update interval sap 300 no fair-queue nrzi-encoding We are using OSPF for routing and that seems to be fine. My thinking is that for some reason IPX is fouled up. I just cant figure out where or why. Any help would be appreciated.
