We have a OS/2 Warp 3.0. It is on the 72 subnet (XXX.XXX.72.226 is the IP). We used to have an NT4 Server on IP Address XXX.XXX.72.79. The OS/2 PC create a mapped network drive to a share on this server using the "net use..." command at the command prompt. This worked without problems for a few years.

Just recently, we replaced this server with one running windows2003 server. The new server was moved to a different location and a different subnet: XXX.XXX.64.238. I am now unable to map a drive to this server from the OS/2 machine.

On the OS/2 machine, I am able to ping the new server by IP address AND hostname. I can map a drive to a Win NT4 PC on the 72 subnet. I can map a drive to a Windows 2000 server PC on the 72 subnet. But I can not map to the server on the 64 subnet.

Is it even possible to map to a PC on another subnet? If so, what might I be missing? I'd like to resolve this without having to put the new server on the 72 subnet.

Thanks,
Josh Breitbach

seams to be problem inbetween netbios and ip.
Is this subnet in the same collision domain, f.e. in the same physical switch or hub? Describe more about your network.
