I have a strange problem trying to get Secure Clients to resolve the internal names of the computers in our network. I'm able to connect and authenticate okay, but when I try to go to a computer by typing \\computername for example, it can't find it. I added a WINS server to the TCP/IP settings, and that worked at first, but the weird thing is that it stopped working. So, I then added an LMHOSTS file, and that only partially works. I would be able to ping the name, but still am not able to view the contents of the computer. Maybe this info would help too. There seems to be a related problem on the firewall server itself. When logging into the management station from a remote computer I used to go to "gatekeeper", but now I have to go directly to the IP. I also I had to add my computer's IP address to the list of allowed GUI clients, wheras before I just put in the name of the comptuer. For some reason the firewall is not resolving any computer names that pass through it. However the computers on our internal network domain resolve just fine... I have Secure Clients being able to access anything on our network as the second rule after dropping silent services (bootp, bootp-client, nbdatagram, nbname, nbsession). Firewall-1 is version 4.1 running on NT Server. All client machines are Win 2000. Has anyone experienced this before?
