Did you re-run ICW (Internet Connection Wizard) after changing the external
NIC IP address?

I recently moved a Windows 2000 SBS and network to a new location. All
equipment including computers, switches, firewall, printers... every piece
of
equipmtent in the entire network was reassembled exactly as it was in the
old
building. The Compaq Proliant server which hosts the Windows 2000 SBS is
a
multi-homed system... the only configuration I changed was the IP address
of
the external NIC (I also changed the trusted interface on the Watchguard
but
that is not relevant to my current problem)... Once I had the network
back
up and running I noticed that all the XP clients could join the Domain
(same
domain name, I didn't change anything) but none of the Win98 clients could
join. I also noticed that certain services... although running... don't
appear to function, like Routing and Remote Access. If I call up the RRA
manager my "server name" is X'd out. Also, although email is working
(Exchange 2000) odd error messages are written to the event logs about
failed
authorizations and Global promotion. Also, error messages about broken
trusts and invalid SID id's are written to the event logs along with
messages
about "can't find network name". There are so many things wrong that I
find
it difficult to even categorize the problems however, the server is
running
and performing reasonably well (except for the Win98 clients who can't
logon
at all). Internet access is fine... email works fine (if you ignore the
errors in the event logs)... file sharing and printing are all working
fine.
I'm guessing that the problems must originate from the external NIC IP
change but I'm at a loss to explain how. I did a scan of the registry
for
the old external NIC IP just to see if any referrences still existed but
there were none.
I'm running SP4 of Windows 2000 server, so there are no additional SP's to
be applied. Any ideas??? I'm stumped.
