Guest susan Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Dear all, I have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1. I have problem with Network Adapter so I change the new one. After changing, I configure its IP Address the same as the broken one. The result is, it has the message said something like that IP Address is already exist in another Network Adapter and the old one (the broken one) I already threw it aways. So, anyone has met that problem or know how to solve it please help me. It's urgent for me. Thanks in advance. Yours sincerely, Susan
Guest Brock Hensley Posted March 21, 2008 Posted March 21, 2008 Re: IP address problem! Is the old card still in the Device Manager and/or Network Connections? If so, disable/remove it. -B "susan" <metrey007@gmail.com> wrote in message news:94f0c3c5-418a-4d6f-8c23-7ecdc448e073@o22g2000hsh.googlegroups.com... > Dear all, > > I have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition SP1.

It is not a problem and you can safely ignore the message. By the way, it's a good idea to note down such messages verbatim before posting. It gives potential respondents much more to go by than writing "the message said something like ..." (which is the way end users tend to report problems).

Thanks in advance, Susan ================== As I said before, this is a warning message that you can safely ignore. After all, only one of your adapters is active!

But seems my ISA clients on all PCs do not work and when I ping to that ISA Server (server which I change new network adapter) it says "Request timed out". So, what is that problem? Can you give me other advice about this? Thanks, Susan

Can you give me other advice about this? Thanks, Susan ================ You should start with the standard trouble-shooting procedures: - Examine the output from the command ipconfig /all - Examine your firewall settings So far you've reported nothing about those.

But, when I ping it from client, it says "Request timed out". I also can not remote. For, Firewall is disabled the same as before. So, what is your advice for the next step? Thanks, Susan
Guest Pegasus \(MVP\) Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Re: IP address problem! After I do ipconfig /all, the out put is the same as what I did as Static IP Address that it shows the message this IP is already exist on another Network Adapter. But, when I ping it from client, it says "Request timed out". I also can not remote. For, Firewall is disabled the same as before. So, what is your advice for the next step? Thanks, Susan ================ You need to approach this problem systematically, one small step at the time. Here are some of the essential steps. a) Run ipconfig /all on the problem server and post the output. If you don't post the output then we can't tell what's going on! b) Run ipconfig /all on a workstation and post the output. c) While on the server, ping one of the workstations and report the result. d) If Test c) fails, start swapping things, e.g. network cable, hub port, network adapter. You should also drop the speed of the problem adapter to 10 MBits/s simples. e) Since you have this persistent notion that the problem is caused by having the same IP address as the old adapter, select a different address and see if the problem persists.
