Netscape Enterprise Server

I can create and access my webpages internally, but cannot access them from anywhere outside of my local intranet. I have two different subnets. 38.202.x.x and 38.196.x.x. Each webpage created will be assigned an ip corresponding to it's subnet group. The first subnet was already established and I can access those websites (ip address) from a web browser anywhere without a problem. But when I try to access anything on the 38.196.x.x from say, home, I get;"cannot open page" or cannot reach server" I set up the new subnet just like the old subnet. I thought I had done it correctly because I was able create the pages. Normally I will encounter an error on the server administrator page if I try to add a new server and I haven't yet added it to /etc/hosts or updated the interface configurtion "ifconfig lan$:$...

If I am not doing something correctly, please advise. Thanks

Re: Netscape Enterprise Server

Hi
Since you are not specifik about your setup it is not easy to help you, but it seems like you have routing prolems.
Check that you have the new net configured in your routers.
Check with ping and traceroute.
On Win98 an Win2000 traceroute is tracert.
Good luck

Re: Netscape Enterprise Server

The easiest way to check this is to go to a PC on the outside go to the do prompt and type

telnet machinename 80

hit return and type

GET

you should see a bit of HTML code returned back.
If you cannot tenet to port 80 it means you cannot reach the webserver (I presume it using the default port 80)

Now try doing a traceroute to the machine if you only have a PC I think it is
tracert machinename

If both these don't work you have yourself a routing problem and that would be an entirely different question/response :-)
Minimum effort maximum output!
