February 28, 200124 yr Newbies FM running in a workgroup setting with Filemaker server, all - FM Server, and clients - configured to use IPX/SPX protocol. New app in office requires IPX to be removed in favor of TCP/IP. Changed the FM clients to use TCP/IP (Edit, Preferences, Application). Changed FM Server to allow TCP/IP in control panel, then restarted the service. Now the clients can't open any FM files - error message about file set for single user, or host not available. FM on the server machine can't open them either - error message about a network error preventing file sharing. How can I get FM server to share files with TCP/IP?
February 28, 200124 yr Do all of the client machines and the server have valid TCP/IP numbers? [This message has been edited by esteshk (edited February 28, 2001).] [This message has been edited by esteshk (edited February 28, 2001).]
March 1, 200124 yr Sounds like an old FM Server 3.0 problem. Open the server files using a normal copy of FM and reset them to multi-user. -bd
