Hello:

I have two locations using Cisco Routers connected to Adtran ISU's connected via ISDN.

At Location A (MAIN SERVER SCO UNIX 5.0.6), I have a Cisco 4000 Router (connected to Adtran ISU's), and at Location 2 (REMOTE) I have a Cisco 2501 Router (also connected to Adtran ISU's.

Here is my problem...

When I am at the remote location - I can ping any IP device at that location (router, Micro Annex XL), AND I can ping Accross the ISDN line to the MAIN SERVER LOCATION, and ping any ip addressed equipment on that side ( Servers, Computers, printers, etc). But from the MAIN SERVER LOCATION, I can only ping the Router at the REMOTE location. Any equipment "behind" the router, at the remote site (Laptop, Micro Annex XL) cannot be "ping"ed from the Main Location.

Since this is the case I cannot get my server - at the MAIN LOCATION to COMMUNICATE with WYSE 60 dumb terminals at the REMOTE SITE through the Micro Annex.

By the way I can also VPN (using my Laptop) from the Remote site to a CITRIX METAFRAME SERVER at the MAIN LOCATION - but oddly enough even the CITRIX server cannot "ping" the laptop across the routers?

Is there a Cisco Setting in either of the Cisco Routers that could be responsible or is there something else going on here? Ny suggestions would be appreciated?

Regards

When you are at the remote site, are you pinging the machines at the main site using external IP addresses or machine names? Usually, any machines behind a router are not pingable.

Secondly, I wouldn't expect that dumb terminals are pingable at any time. I would make a chart of the IP routes on both sites and compare the two.
