How can Macs running IE4.5, talk to an NT4 IIS4 intranet web server, without changing the browser-config for DHCP-cable?
For internet, my company recently changed from an ISDN based proxy-server and BRI-router, to cable modem. The old proxy/web server contains numerous intranet apps under IIS4 that are crucial to our company. There are 3 PCs (incl. the server) connected directly to the master switch which can still get the apps fine (using the computer name). The problem is, we have an appletalk subnet that once used the static-IP server to get intra/internet, now they all use DHCP on the cable-network, resulting in unavailability of the local web-server.
MS-Outlook for Mac, still talks to Exchange (also on the server), and server folders can still be shared with Mac users using File Manager on PC, and the Chooser on Mac. However, very annoyingly, the Mac browsers query the cable, and don’t find the server. The router is disconnected and will be sold off. Tried everything. Any clues appreciated.
