AAAAAAAAAAARGH!

i'm hosting an fm database via FM server, but computers in different zones can't see the host at all. is it a problem with filemaker that it can't see hosts in different subnets? I checked the connectivity otherwise and everything seemed to be working. I'm running the server on NT, and the client machines are both Mac and PC running FM5. I'm using TCP/IP as the network protocol in FM.

Is there anything I can do?

thanks,

Ati, jedi master

Never mind. Turns out you can specify IP addresses outside your subnet mask by hitting hte "specify address" option in the hosts menu.

Boy do i feel foolish
