SNA Server Distributed Link Service Supports IP Address

ID: Q149239

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SNA Server, versions 2.11 SP1, 3.0
on the following platforms: NT

It is possible to enter the central SNA Server's IP address in the Distributed Link Service Setup dialog box even though the documentation does not explicitly state this.

The following is a sample entry in the Distributed Link Service Setup dialog box:

Remote Link Service: \\100.120.3.4\SNADLC1

where 100.120.3.4 is the central SNA Server's IP address.

Use the TCP/IP address whenever there are difficulties with NetBIOS name resolution. Using the IP address of the server prevents name resolution from taking place.
