Hi,
How can I mac-telnet from a windows pc ? I tried using neighbourviewer.exe but it fails to connect whereas thru routeros It can be done.
thnx
Nothing, but, try it yourself... disable it and try to connect... perhaps it´s a win2k issue. I don´t know, i´m just telling what happened in my paticular case. If mt guys can confirm this... maybe i´m wrong, but i´m just trying to help, that´s allWhat does NETBIOS a session layer protocol have to do with MAC-Telnet that operates at Layer 2?
If you have winbox.exe on your laptop/pc and are on the same segment as the mikrotik router, open winbox click the "..." button next to the "Connect to:" field and it should show the IP and MAC address of the mikrotik device. As well as the device name. You should then be able to select that device and login via MAC-winbox.
The neighbor viewer works the same way just be connected to the same segment. Also make sure any software firewalls you have are properly configured or disabled when you use this program.
