When you use the NET USE command across a router using TCP/IP-32 and
encounter problems, the following troubleshooting techniques are
recommended:
- Make sure you ping across both sides of the router. This tests to
make sure the router is configured and working properly.
- Check to make sure you have an entry in the LMHOSTS file that lists the
NetBIOS name and IP address of the machine across the router. See the
LMHOSTS.SAM file for a description and example LMHOSTS file entries.
- Make sure the Enable LMHOSTS Lookup check box is selected in the
Advanced Microsoft TCP/IP configuration dialog box. This is located in
the Network group; choose the Network Setup icon, and then double-click
Microsoft TCP/IP-32 3.11, Advanced.
- If you are having trouble connecting from File Manager, but can connect
fine from the MS-DOS command prompt, add the #PRE keyword to the LMHOSTS
file entry. This is noted in the release notes. See the LMHOSTS.SAM file
for an example of using the #PRE keyword.
