Topic: proximity network

[al]

Hello, i'm french

this is the configuration:
voici la configuration:

   in windows client:    workgroup = 'bureautique'
   in e-smith server:    workgroup = 'e-smith'

if the server is configured 'server only - dedicated', i see it in 'global network' of windows (the workgroups are different). But if the server is configured ''server only - no internet access' (the workgroups didn't changed), the server disappears. If i rename 'e-smith' the workgroup of the client windows , it doesn't change nothing ....

Lorsque mon serveur était configuré comme un serveur dédié, je le voyais dans le réseau global du voisinage réseau de windows et ce malgré la différence de 'workgroup' entre le client et le serveur. Après avoir reconfiguré mon serveur afin de supprimer l'accès internet, il a disparu du voisinage réseau sur le client windows.

thanks for your answers, bye
merci pour votre aide

Do you have another dhcp server in your network?
are you providing dhcp service with the e-smith server or not?
If you are using Microsoft windows 98 SE internet shared connection, it could interfere with E-smith dhcp service (dns assignment)
Sorry about my english!

i don't see the server with 'explorer.exe', but i see it with 'Poste de travail' or internet explorer at '\e-smith-server'
