I am not sure what the implications of that are given that a DHCP runs the VLANs on this network. See the ip specs of one node below:

@Simon..yeah of course..that's right.....and my query: Any work arounds apart from changing to the same subnets?

Set subnet to 255.255.0.0. Note the LAN/netbios protos though because that is what devices on same subnet uses.

If they must be separate networks, may be difficult to pass netbios protocols.

Hello skunks and skunkettes....

I have a query, why is it that I can mount a hard disk of a node (192.168.177.157) to another node (192.168.177.131) and both running on  on Windows 7 P easily yet none of those can map to another node of a different subnet, that is, 192.168.178.34 or vice versa.

Is there a way I can map network drive within separate subnets bila a tussle of any sort?
