Hi,

I have a windows 2003 running with ip 16.X.X.X
and UX server with ip 15.x.x.x

the issue is i am not able to access the UX server from windows server. i am trying to access specific port.

Please Help !

Hi

You need to do routing between these two networks, and if you have already router doing that, then check other issues like it may the firewall blocking the port.

Good Luck !!!

As both the networks reside in corp. network there is no firewall configured. hence is there any way to configure windows so that i will reach the box in 15.x.x.x

Thanks!

Can you ping or traceroute to the UX server from the Win2003?

Start, Run, cmd, OK then type:

ping 15.x.x.x

(any replies)

tracert -d 15.x.x.x

ipconfig

(what mask and gateway are you using)

exit

Do you know how you get from what network to another? Is there a router or Layer 3 switch involved? Normally unless your mask is something ridiculous these are two separate subnets and some routing must take place even if they are plugged into side by side ports on the same switch.

Hi

Add to Ron's suggestions, i have a hint.

Add another IP address to your Windows 2003 as a secondary IP, and in this case this OS will route between these 2 networks, and i think you can access it.

This scenario will work in case that you don't have a router, so say 2 PCs connected to a hub, and each PC has an IP in different range, so this tip will help you to establish a communication between the 2 PCs.

Good Luck !!!
