Hi folks,
Apologies for the off-topic post, but I'm having real problems with 
this.

I've been using a Windows NT4 server for some time (as an 
application server, rather than a file server) and I've got a new 
Win2K machine so that I can (finally) do development seperate 
from the production machine.

I've moved the NT box to a different network port, which just 
happened to be on a different subnet to the rest of the machines in 
the office (including the new machine).  Although I was able to get 
the NT box a new IP address etc so it's visible over the Internet (I 
can ping it and access it via a web browser), I can't see it in 
Network Neighbourhood from any other machine in the office.

I've spoken to our network support people and they can't think of 
any way that I can make these machines talk to each onter.

Oh, and the NT box is a domain controller.

TIA,
Raj.
