Hi List, Tony
I was able to use the first two network that you gave (192.168.100.0, 192.168.100.64) and ping and used to communicate with other win98/w2k client using netmeeting and I was so happy, I just have another question because when I browse the network neighborhhod on win98/w2k I cant see the other network (B) or vise versa, is this realy the scenario or do I have tho configure something
 
TIA
Toto

Thanks Tony
Were not using a DHCP. I just used the first two network that you gave and try to change it again in the future if we expand our network (hopefully). I'll keep a printed/soft copy of your email and post again the development of this.
 
 
thanks again
 
Regards,
Toto

The networks are identical. They are both 192.168.100.0/255.255.255.0, so
you can't route between them. You need to create separate networks.
Working with your existing IP addresses, you can do this by making these
subnets:


  Network          Netmask          IP Range (incl network & broadcast)
  ---------------  ---------------  -----------------------------------
  192.168.100.0    255.255.255.192  192.168.100.0  - 192.168.100.63
  192.168.100.64   255.255.255.192  192.168.100.64 - 192.168.100.127


That works, but it limits your ability to add machines at your biggest
site. Assuming all the IPs you listed are in use, this plan only has 12
unused IP addresses at the larger site. If you are willing to change IP
addresses at the smaller site (you are using DHCP aren't you?), you can
have 126 usable addresses per site:


  Network          Netmask          IP Range (incl network & broadcast)
  ---------------  ---------------  -----------------------------------
  192.168.100.0    255.255.255.128  192.168.100.0   - 192.168.100.127
  192.168.100.128  255.255.255.128  192.168.100.128 - 192.168.100.255


If/when new sites are added, you can give each new site a subnet with 126
usable addresses:


  Network          Netmask          IP Range (incl network & broadcast)
  ---------------  ---------------  -----------------------------------
  192.168.101.0    255.255.255.128  192.168.101.0   - 192.168.101.127
  192.168.101.128  255.255.255.128  192.168.101.128 - 192.168.101.255
  192.168.102.0    255.255.255.128  192.168.102.0   - 192.168.102.127
  192.168.102.128  255.255.255.128  192.168.102.128 - 192.168.102.255
