Re: System name connection problems

First I like the name of your AS/400's :) Well not the old part!

Second see http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l/200106/msg01920.html the IP address is stored in the registry for some version of client access.

WIN98 clients attached OK, WINXP tried to attach
to old system despite me changing system name
from JOHN to JOHNOLD and changing IP address??

( all expect 1 Win98 machine which did the same as XP?? )

I had to create new connection based on the IP address,
and that was OK, but NOT if i used the system name.

What have i missed??
Something on the AS400?
Something on the PC's?
