Vista Machines Locking up Network??


Recommended Posts

I've been running a Windows 2003 SP2 server with 15+ XP Pro workstations for

over a year. No Problems...... then Last Week we added 4 new workstations

(VISTA) to our network and now we've been having issues with not being able

to get to the internet etc.. This appears to be only an internet access

issue. The probelm begins with a vista system (Random) then resonates

throughout the network to all sysems. Could my vista machines be creating an

issue that locks my other system from getting out?

 

My settings are as follows:

 

W2K3 server

DHCP

DNS (with external requests forwarded to ISP)

GATEWAY points to Router

All workstations point to my server for DNS and DHCP

 

Gateway Router NETOPIA (provided by ISP)

Can you ping a public IP? If yes, can you ping yahoo.com?
