Cannot find tree or server

[tango]

Hi folks,

 

Intermittent problem here , Novell 6 and client 4.91 SP3. It only seems to happen on Dell GX520s for some reason so far which have been freshly upgraded to XP. One minute everything is fine , can log on no problem , next cant find tree , log on locally check settings , log back out , 50/50 chance of it working or not. I'm not a Novell person so this is doing my head in.

 

Any ideas ? I'm pondering redoing the XP image just so I can rule that out of the equation as images for other models seem okay.

 

Just wondered if anyone else has come across this before ?

 

Thanks

are you trying to logon wirelessly?

Nope no wireless, static ips with no conflicts either. If I log on locally I can ping the server no problem , just cant find the tree. I'd be happier if it just could never find the tree then at least I'd know there was a problem , its the fact it works sometimes and sometimes not that is bothering me so much.

Trying using just the IP as the tree and then go to context and servers. I have this issue to in the states and it has something to do with SLP. Not totally sure why it can see ip but not UNC name though?
