Real Scenario:
Location1/Network1 192.168.254.0 (L1/N1)
Server: Novell SBS NW5(SP5)
IP 192.168.254.1/255.255.255.0
Novell Groupwise 5.5
Gateway 192.168.254.254 (Internet DSL Router)
Cisco Router IP 192.168.254.6/255.255.255.0
Clients: Windows 98
Location2/Network2 192.168.253.0 (L2/N2)
Unix Server IP 192.168.253.1/255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.253.6 (Cisco Router)
Cisco Router IP 192.168.253.6/255.255.255.0
Clients: Windows 98
The Cisco Routers are used only to connect L1/N1 to L2/N2.
It is not being used for the Internet access.
I need to make Clients on L2/N2 access and login to Novell Server on L1/N1 and access the Internet.
Clients from L1/N1 are able to access the Unix Server on L2/N2
only if a route is added manually to the Client’s local routing table
like this: route add 192.168.253.0 mask 255.255.255.0 192.168.254.6 metric 1
And the access is done merely by IP address.
This line is entered automatically on the login script of each client on L1/N1
Note: The route added manually can only be added after you past the login to network dialog box.
This route is also erased once the client computer is rebooted.
Question:
How can I make clients from L2/N2 be able to loginto Novell Server on L1/N1 and access the Internet?
I tried adding the route manually from L2/N2 to access L1/N1 and the access is successful
only by IP. Means that the Clients on L2/N2 are only able to ping the Novell Server.
