Re: Changing Server IP Address

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Sounds like DNS issue. Have you checked the DNS record to make sure no old computer uses old IP? Or use dcdiag to check any errors.

I had to retire some subnets due to the sale of our company.
I put the new_ip as the preferred dns and added the old_ip as a second ip
under the advanced tcpip setting -> ip setting. Rebooted the server.
All of my static ip clients could now see both ip addresses and login with
no problems.

Now to my problems.
It now takes 3-5 minutes to get a desktop at the server console or when
using terminal services when I remove the old_ip address from the nic .
Also, the group policy management editor shows no computer or user polices
defined when I run a report and runs real slow. Last, the event viewer has
directory service errors complaining that the server’s global catalog was
found but could not communicate with it. (The server is still listed as a
global catalog under AD sites and services.)

I know if I put the old_ip back in place everything will start working,
which is not an option. What do I need to do to fix these problems?

Thanks..
