Sounds like either a routing issue, or a firewall issue. can you do the following. nmap -sS -P0 -p 138,139,445 Server_on_SubnetB_IP Address from a workstation on Subnet A. This will tell you if you can see the ports or not. If you get no return, then its a routing issue, if you get a return and either its open, closed or filtered then you might be looking at a firewall or router access list issue. ( I would disgress further, but dont see the output of that yet) Z

There are other emails that went out to the rest of the campus after I sent mine to the listserv so I believe it is probably a routing issue. Z.V.

But if I log in to the DC-1 in subnet A I have no problem mapping to all shares on my subnets. And I can also see all admin shares on workstations. The same goes for subnet B when I log in to a workstation. I cannot see server shares in subnet A. I can log into DC-2 in subnet B and access all shares. Both DCs are DNS servers. Both servers replicate fine and no strange log. Internet access is fine. Firewalls have been turned off. WTF!! So in other words, only the domain controllers can see and map to all the nodes in the LAN. Ping fails from DC-1 subnet A to machines in subnet B. DCs have been restarted. No problem with user logon because both DCs are working properly and replicating fine. I am convince it is a switch issue. -Z.V.
