Site to Site IPSec connector

[michael]

I have a problem with netbios name translation between sites, but i can do everything by IP, also i cannot get my domain on remote site.

I have two PIX 515 ver. 6.1(3) and one PIX 501 ver 6.1(3). By the way ,I read on the site that netbios does not work with certain IPSec encapsulations on these versions yet.

So, if anybody know how can I resolve this problem please help me.

Thanks.

Hello Michael,

Have you considered using a WINS server, this will resolve computer names to IP addresses. Once you've configured a WINS server, you can use the PIX to automatically assign the hosts the WINS server IP address, or alternatively set ip yourself in the TCP/IP setting 'Advanced' setting.

Check out this page on Microsoft's site

Hope this helps

Tony
