OK,

When our network was setup it was given the internal subnet of
47.1.1.x, now I want to change it to 192.168.6.x. Most everything is
fine except a few computers (my laptop for one). I can't access the
server, when I try \\47.1.1.101, it works, but the 192.168.6.101
doesn't. This also creates problems with some printers. Now my
desktop works fine which seems really strange.

Thanks,
Dave

I should add that I have 2 network cards in the server, 1 has the
192.168.6 network and the other is the 47.1.1.x network. The DNS
reports both address for server, the 192.168.6 is first.

Why do you have two LAN-facing NICs (presuming that's what you mean)? That
is really not a good idea and will cause no end of problems; disable one,
and run the change IP address thingy in the Server Management | Internet and
Email page.


I did this because I had 2 cards and wasn't using 1. I need to keep
both subnets active until everything is working right.

So, will putting both subnets on 1 nic be the right way to go?

Thanks,
Dave
