RE: AS/400 in Network Neighborhood

["Carl Galgano" <cgalgano2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can also do a search by the IP address.  I have found that the

routers are not configured to broadcast NetBuei.  But a search by IP

Visibility of the system in Windoze Network Neighbourhood depends on
correctly configuring the domain - and even then is erratic.  It also
depends on NetServer being started.  You can usually locate the system
by doing a Find Computer.  You will need to know the NetServer name,
which is usually the system name prefixed by a Q, although NetServer
supports an attribute that if set will allow the system name to be used
also.  OpsNav will show you the attributes and allow you to start it --
or you could use our ONcmd facility to do it directly from the command
line.  For example:
