Hi all,
In brief I have a domain with 1 PDC & 1 BDC, the PDC has the IP 172.16.1.1 with 255.255.255.0 subnet mask, DHCP is installed with scope 172.16.1.30 to 172.16.1.100.
I want to connect to the domain remotely, so I have installed RAS & configured to let clients with static IP (from 172.16.1.15 to 172.16.1.29), till now I don’t have any problem….

From the remote computer with Windows 98 OS with static IP 172.16.1.15, when I try to connect, it connects, (before connection Iget a messages means that there isn’t any domain) but when I type ipconfig command from the command prompt I get the following IP & Subnet:

IP: 172.16.1.16
Subnet: 255.255.0.0

I can ping the server, but I can’t see any of the computer on the network neighborhood neither the server.

Would you please help me? Or tell me the right configuration for the clients (Dial UP)

Bakh

Hi,

You may want to think about having those remote PCs join your domain. Get that sorted out first and see if you've still got the problem...

Cheers,
Tim.
