Title: Local Networks and Mount
Post by: Jonathan Williams on August 20, 2002, 09:17:19 PM

Hi Chaps, hope you can help??!!

I'm trying to connect two sme servers over a WAN using adsl with fixed IP's. In order to connect server A to server B i have to add server A as a local network on server B.

This works fine, however, now, when trying to connect server B to server A the connection is refused because of the local network.

If i then add server B as a local network on server A, neither server can see each other.

If some one could shed any light on this i would be eternally grateful.

Secondly - as i have been having problems with local networks, i have resorted to using Mount to enable the servers to see each other. I have mounted ibays on server B onto server A.

This works fine until i attempt to write to the mounted drive on server B from server A. I am told that i do not have permisson to write to the mounted drive. I have set group access on the ibay to 'everyone' and the passwords on both servers for the users are exactly the same.

Can anyone help me??!!

Regards

Jonathan
