Hello Mike,
I all of the sudden can connect via rdt to other systems
insided the lan. I couldn't before....I have changed
nothing. One thing I noticed when checking our DHCP
server is that some client machines are recieving two IP
addresses. I have had them reboot and this still happens.
I have recently added a second windows 2003 std server to
our domain. I also noticed that some computer names on
the dhcp server are showing up with less than 15-
characters and some are not. Almost all of the machines
were setup with names longer then 15-characters. I know
there is a NETBIOS limit on names but don't understand
why some computer names are longer than 15 c and others
are truncated down to 15 c. There are two separate scops
setup for dhcp. dns is integrated and we are using ad.
Not sure what is going on?
