I am running 2 LAN's connected by kilostream. The primary LAN has 1 NT4 PDC and a BDC, and various client stations. The secondary LAN has a NT4 BDC replicating from the main PDC and various clients.

Primary LAN is running on x.x.4.x TCP/IP address
secondary is x.x.5.x

Everything was running fine untill I upgraded the secondary network from BNC to fast ethernet. When I replaced the network card in the BDC it told me that the name NTSERVER2 was already in use on the network and I had to rename the BDC to NTSERVER4.

From the secondary LAN, I can see all servers and clients through network neighbourhood, but the primary LAN will not see the secondary.

I can ping the secondary LAN clients and server from all machines and map drives to it (but only from NT4 and Win98 boxes, not win95).

I also cannot access the secondary BDC through server manager on the primary, but I can access the primary from the secondary.

Any ideas? I have updated the hosts files on all machines, but still no joy.

Thanks in advance

TK
