Hyper V and Guest with intermittent RDP connections

[Guest Mark Davis]

I have a Dell 2950 running server 2008 X64 that is giving me a heck of a time

getting guests to run properly. The first issue is RDP coonections seem to

drop on the host for no reason, a reboot clears this sometimes. I removed

the host machine from the domain and that seemed to fix that problem along

with a limited connectivity error I was getting on the hosts brodcoms NICs.

I have two 2008 guests and two 2003 guests and all four of them have this

limited connectivity issue. They can be added to the domain and can access

the internet but RDP sessions are intermittent. I disabled the firewall on

all the guests with no luck. On my host server I have one NIC dedicated with

a static IP for RDP, when I installed the hyper v role I only checked the 2nd

brodcom nic for it to use during the install so I cannot figure out why the

network connectivity is so flaky.
