I'm running Windows 2003 standard edition server. I have DHCP and DNS
configured properly. I have other computers that connect to it with no
problem. Today for no apparent reason my laptop which is running XP Pro just
dropped the connection. It can't see the domain controller. I tried removing
it from the doamin and rejoining but that didn't work. If I manually
configure TCP/IP I can ping computers on the network but I still can't join
the domain. There are no error messages in event viewer either. Can anyone
help me out here?

Thanks!
