Guest Candace Sparks Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Client is have network connection problems. When they login in the morning, getting the message that "can't connect to all network drives. When they try to select something in the drop down menu, for example, in Word 2003, their computer freezes and they have to reboot, or have to end task in task manager. I did update the driver for the Lan connection on the Server. Internet works fine. I posted this in the networking newsgroup but did not get a reply. It is happening to all users, so seems to be a global thing. Any ideas! Thank you for your help in advance! Candace Sparks

If you have an ISP or any other outside DNS listed, this can cause it. Also if the DC is multihomed, this can cause it as well. Post an unedited ipconfig /all of the server and a sample workstation please. This will better help us determine or at least eliminate some causes. -- Regards, Ace This posting is provided "AS-IS" with no warranties or guarantees and confers no rights.
