    Ok

    Here is a tricky one! :)

    The user has an NT laptop with dialin access to the
    company's network through a RAS server.

    The user can dialin and access the company's network with
    no problem. Internet access through the company's network
    works, access to the NT PDC and shares on the PDC and
    other available shares all work.

    But, the user cannot access the mailserver, when she tries
    to access this server she is told no network path is
    found. Yet can ping the mailserver, both by hostname
    and ip address.

    I have logged on as administrator and when the laptop was
    dialled in was still unable to access the mailserver,
    although had full access everywhere else.

    I have changed the IP address of the workstation. Yet
    this has not made any difference.

    The Mailserver is an NT server running exchange 5.5 and
    the RAS server is an NT box.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    When the user is dialed in, does ipconfig /all show the values it should?
