Re: Can't access resources at remote site



Here's where you lost me:

"Everything is a class B subnet. On site our addresses are 10.1.100.*, the
DCHP leased addresses are 10.1.4.*,"

Are you saying that the DHCP scope is 10.1.4.0 to 10.1.4.255 with a subnet
mask of 255.255.0.0 or 255.255.255.0? IE. is this a subnet mask issue?
