SYMPTOMS
When you try to connect from an NT 3.51 Workstation or Standalone Server to an IBM LAN Server, a NET VIEW or NET USE command might return an ERROR 53, computer cannot be located, although the computers should be able to communicate.



RESOLUTION
Set the NT computer to use a WORKGROUP that has the same name as the LAN Server domain name. If this does not correct the problem, contact IBM Product Support to obtain the appropriate Corrective Service Disk for LAN Server connectivity.
