Hello,

I am having trouble reaching my server by the net Bios name after changing
the servers IP address. The server is named MONEY and the old IP address was
192.168.0.4 now it is 192.168.1.4 and I can reach it if I use the new IP not
the NetBios name. I am trying to evaluate a LAN manager and it also sees
MONEY with the old IP of 192.168.0.4
What can I do get things corrected please?

Thank you
Joe
 
Do you have WINS server? or use nbtstat -RR command.

Hello Rob

Yes I am using WINS server I just noticed something else I did ipconfig and
did displaydns and I get the old IP but If I looknat the IP for host record
in AD DNS it is correct. what is nbstat -RR?

Thanks
