Hi, You probably have but did you try 'ipconfig -release'or 'ipconfig -renew' after flushing the cache? Is it a static IP or picking this up via DHCP? Roger K aka Mav617 'Never trust a badger with a screwdriver....'

Hi guys, I have a Windows 2K pro machine with dual NICs. One (LAN2) connects to my LAN and allows me to configure the system remotely using PCAnywhere. LAN1 connects to a router which I need to configure. The default router address is 192.168.1.1 and the NIC address I have set up as...

Hi guys, I have a Windows 2K pro machine with dual NICs. One (LAN2) connects to my LAN and allows me to configure the system remotely using PCAnywhere. LAN1 connects to a router which I need to configure. The default router address is 192.168.1.1 and the NIC address I have set up as...

I think I'll have to manage for now. When I do IPCONFIG from that host machine I am seeing a different IP address and when I try to do /RENEW or /RELEASE I get a message about DHCP and Bindings. I am replacing this machine with a Win2K machine shortly so I'll see if that resolves it. Many...

It's using DHCP, been assigned as 192.168.200.4 and the host pc is 192.168.200.81 Odd that DNS doesn't seem to resolve the hostname on the NT4.0 machine - just checking settings. Roger K aka Mav617 'Never trust a badger with a screwdriver....'

Yes, I can PCA around no problem unless I'm going from a .200 to a .200. I can ping the host using DNS to resolve the host name to the IP address, but when I try and ping back to the remote control pc from the host using the remote control pc name rather than it's IP address I get 'Bad IP...

I can't suss it either, nothing special on firewalls, it's a private circuit with no outside access, just a LAN at each end. All the machines are Win 2K Professional or (wait for it...) NT4.0!! Roger K aka Mav617 'Never trust a badger with a screwdriver....'

Hi chipk, If I do tracert or pathping from the .200 machine running the remote control service to the .200 host it doesn't hit the router - so why can't I PCAnywhere? IPConfig is: IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.200.4 Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0 Default...

Also, try pressing 'Alt' or 'CTRL' when you first connect to the Host machine. Roger K aka Mav617 'Never trust a badger with a screwdriver....'

Hi mate, There is a tricky option hidden away in the Host settings. Under Security Options-Session Options-'Keyboard/mouse active during session:' make sure it's set to 'Host And Remote'

Hi, The Host properties on the remote PC include a tab for callers. This could be set to 'Use Windows Authentication with PCAnywhere privileges' or 'Use Windows Authentication with Windows Privileges', and you need to edit it to say 'Use PCanywhere Authentication with PCAnywhere Privileges'...

Hi, This is really bugging me and I bet it's simple! I have two locations, connected via a 2MB leased line with a Cisco 2600 at each end. Northern has an IP range of 192.168.200.xxx and Southern is 192.168.100.xxx. I can pcanywhere from any of the .200 machines to any of the .100 machines and I...

Thanks Pete, I'll need to drive up there and check the DVR then. I set it up as IP - 192.168.200.20 Mask -255.255.255.0 GW -192.168.200.25, and it used to work fine. I can ping it from the domain controller, but not from the router, which sounds like your point about thinking it's local?

Thanks Lambent, There is nor outing table in the DVR, just an IP address (192.168.200.20) and the gateway, which is the IP address of the Manchester Router (192.168.200.25). It was working fine until the Domain Controller on the network at that end went down and has since been replaced. I've...

Hi, I have a PTP circuit with a 2600 at either end. All works fine except I can't see one of the machines on the other end of the network. It's not a PC, it's a Digital Video Recorder. The DVR has an IP address and a gateway, the gateway being the router at that end of the circuit. I can access...
