W98 to Mac Server

Featured Replies

I am currently running FMPro5 Server Mac. on OS9 (Server). 3 Local Terminals (Mac OS 8.6) 1 Local Terminal (W98. We Have 2 Clients which connect to D.Bases Via Remote access(Mac). My Problem is that From home I am running W98 and running FMPro 5(W98) and I cannot log on to the host. I am using PCMaclan 7.2 and I can see shared files on Mac server but when I try to access databases I get nothing. I am able to log on to server using dial-up with server IP Address set at 192.168.0.1 (SNM)255.255.255.0.. All terminals are set sequentially with the exception of Mac Client used to check e-mail, which is connecting via Apple talk. When I attemt to access host from home (W98) I show not files.

My only suggestion is to make sure that the server and all client machines are connecting using TCP/IP networking in FMP. Not AppleTalk: PCs don't understand AppleTalk.

You mention that one client is using Appletalk...

Make sure that port 591 is open. That's the primary port that FM uses.

also check port 2399.
