Losing NAT after NetWare upgrade

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 1 Dec 2005

Q:
I installed NetWare 6 SP5. After that, the NBM server doesn't route anything except its own originated traffic to the Net. For example, I can ping past the router from the BM server, resolve IPs, etc. But from any other machine, nothing gets past the public IP on the BM server. Turning off packet filters did not resolve the issue.

A:
Is dynamic NATting turned on, on your public interface? It may have been turned off somehow when you installed SP5.
