Replication does not work from Server console but it works from workplace

HelloI configure 2 Domino on two laptop. Both laptop are in a the same WORKSHOP.

  • On my frist laptop called “oldplaptop” I installed a Domino server called “zv5000”, where reside a configuration directory

  • On my second laptop called “newlaptop”, I installed another Domino server called “Domino6Lab” where reside my primary directory.

On both laptop I went to the “system properties” and set the netbiosname as follow:

– On the “oldlaptop” the netbios name is “oldlaptop”. The subfix DNS name is “zv5000”. the full name is “oldlaptop.zv5000”

– On the “newlaptop” the netbios name is “newlaptop”. The subfix DNS name is “Domino6Lab”. The fulll name is “newlaptop,Domino6Lab”.

  • both domino server belong to the same ‘O’ called “lab”

  • I also created 2 lmhost files where bothe have: ip_adress oldlaptop.zv5000 #PRE; ip_address newlaptop.Domino6Lab #PRE

  • And of course, I created a connection document on my “newlaptop” and on the “oldlaptop”

When I selected a Db from the workplace and replicate it, it works fine, but when I enter “replicate zv5000/lab names.nsf” (lab is my ‘O’), it does not work. I also entered “replicate ip_address names.nsf” and it does not work as well.

An error stats: “unable to replicate with server zv5000/lab: the server is not reponding. The server may be down or may be experiency a network problem”

the server is not down and I guess a network problem or a document configuration problem.

What should I change on my configuration to make it working?
