Error: Node 0000A2CB263D claims network address 00001120 should be 000

Error: Node 0000A2CB263D claims network address 00001120 should be 00002000...just moved a 4.12 server onto a new ethernet subnet. What does this error mean? How can I correct it? Do I run LOAD INSTALL and change some ethernet settings?

You can rectify this problem a few different ways, but the following is about the easiest...

> Type "LOAD INSTALL" at the console prompt
> Select "NCF FILES Options"
> Choose "EDIT AUTOEXEC.NCF"
> Locate the line that binds IPX to your NIC
"example - BIND IPX 3C90X_1_E83 NET=00001120"
> Modify this line to read...
"example - BIND IPX 3C90X_1_E83 NET=00002000
> Press <ESC> to save your changes
> Exit INSTALL
> Restart Server

Good Luck!

Yup, this is exactly right. Whats listed above needs to be done. The error just means you have the server configured for the wrong IPX network. Minor nuisance is all.
