Legacy machines Pt 2.

P

POOCH

Hello again,

I managed to fix my problem with 2000/xp machines logging
into my child domain. however, i still have a prob with
legacy machines. Ive copied the post from before so all
can read history. I did the DNS on child domain KB
article (which fixed the 2000 xp issue). But 95/98/me
still cannot access the child DC. FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME
DIRECT.

-ANY HELP GREATLY APPRECIATED

PREVIOUS POST:
Heres whats up: I created a child domain at a site where
there is also a parent domain controller. so, I have
site X with domain controller x.domain.com, and at the
same site, I have child.x.domain.com. In sites and
services, I had the ip ranges and sites set up normally
as you woul dwhen you create a new site in teh parent
domain. All was working great, still is for the paretn
domain.

the child domain however, worked for a day. I put it in,
at site X. None of the computers, xp or legacy machines,
can access it. I get this error when logged into the
parent domain trying to access shares on teh child domain:
........
\\DCXXX is not accessible. You might not have permission
to use this network resource. Contact the administrator
of this server to find out if you have access
permissions.

LOGON FAILURE: The target name is incorrect.
.........

What im trying to accomplish here is this: This site is
a school site. In it, students log into the CHILD
domain. They get IP addys from teh parent domain
controller at the same site. ****However, I want teachers
at this site to log into the parent domain and have access
to the shares on the child domain.****

I had this working last school year, but rebuilt my
domain. This is the ONLY prob I have. Its quite teh
trade off since I was able to rebuild my entire domain
from scratch (somethign we tech very RAREY get to do).

so....i VERY VERY hope to hear from someone cause this is
a huge pain in my rear.

I haven't a breeze about this, but here's some things.
Can you ping the Logon Server name from the command prompt of a 98 client
using only it's NetBIOS name? If so, change the network config of the client
temporarily so you can log into WORKGROUP instead of the domain. Can you
access then authenticate and access shares on the Server using
\\Server\Share?
I can't even rememebr what these are called... is Client for Microsoft
Networks, File and printer sharing (not really needed but what the hell)
installed. Enable the Log onto network and enter the domain name. Is the
clients TCP properties configured with your WINS Server, DNS, etc. Just
enable everything.
You need a WINS server that these clients can interact with..

That's it. I'm spent.
