Hello Andy,

Your DNS servers are not in the same subnet. With your subnet mask you can
only use 10.32.14.x but the DNS machines are in 10.32.15.x why is this,
are they behind a router? Is one of the servers DNS server?

The DNS-server doesn't nead to be in the same subnet.
Both servers are located in the same subnet and he can reach the second
server by pinging name (DNS works) or IP, so it's not a routing problem.
Sounds more like a problem with security options or local firewall on the
server.

Hello Andy,

Sounds like DNS problem. Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from
the servers.

Best regards

I have a 2003 server that i cannot access a 2nd 2003 server by unc
path but can ping by ip or name. I can ping both and use unc path
from a 3rd server.

How can I get server 1 to use a unc path to server 2?

Thanks.
