Windows machines register themselves via broadcasts or unicasts to a WINS server for name resolution. If you are trying to browse and locate the machine it is likely that it will not appear on your browse list while it sits in the DMZ. You need to add the appropriate WINS information into the TCP/IP setup on the server. This does not mean that you cannot map a drive or connect to the remote system. Just try and connect to and administrative share using the IP address instead of the name. You can key it in the good ol' NetBIOS fashion \\X.X.X.X\C$ (the X.X.X.X represents the IP address of the remote server). This is assuming you have appropriate permissions to connect to the drive. If you can ping and you have opened up the NBT ports I suspect you should be able to map a drive based on IP. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2000 6:51 AM To: Firewall List Subject: [FW1] Can not map NT file sharing of a machine in DMZ from Local Network Hi! One of our customers can not map the file sharing of his webserver in the DMZ network from his Local Net. In the Rule Base, all NBT services (ports 137,138,139) from Local Net to the Webserver is accepted. I have also tried not NATting from Local Net to DMZ but it did not work. On the other hand the machine in the Localnet can ping the webserver,but it can neither find the machine as a computer nor see it in the Network Neighborhood. I have also tried to Nat(Static) the machine in the Localnet to the DMZ-interface of Firewall,but it did not work either. I know that it is an old issue,but acting as a newbie, can someone help me? As an addition the IP block of the Local Net is illegal and WebServer's is legal.
