2008 server can't access net

[Guest Glenn Clark]

Hi All

 

I have a 2008 server which I am evaluation before we buy. Its stand alone

and when it was built, it used to get its ip via dhcp from a zywall and no

problems. we put exchange 2007 on it and then needed to give it a fixed ip

address, as soon as we did we could not access the net.

 

When hovering over the network icon in the task bar it says local only. I

can access the server from clients and ping from clients, I can't get any

internet access and cant even ping the router\zywall. I have checked

ipconfig and this all show ok as heard about a route issue which left the

default gateway blank but its all fine. The firewall is switched off. I have

run out of ideas.

 

Can anyone help

 

Thanks

 

Glenn

Hello Glenn,

 

Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the server and also describe your

network ip configuration.
