and when he does that, and fires up his other SBS image, he'll need to
rejoin again.

That's one way of handling it, I suppose.

Try rejoining the computer to the domain?

Hi all:

I am a software developer not a network admin, but I depend on SBS 2003
as my platform.

Can someone tell me what the network settings should be for the clients I
connect to the SBS server? I have an SBS Server with IP address
192.168.1.105, and I was able to add a client to the domain without any
trouble, but when I tried to log on just now I get a "Windows cannot
connect to the domain, either because the domain controller is down or
otherwise unavailable, or because your computer account was not found..."
so I logged on as local admin, checked that I can ping the server and I
can, I also checked to see if nslookup <servername> resolves and it does,
but I still cannot log on to the domain.
I next logged onto the server and checked for the computer account, it is
there and is not disabled. I also tried pinging the client and that
worked, both ping crmclient, and ping 192.168.1.55 worked.

I even tried logging on to OWA from the server with the client account
and that worked fine.

The client networking is set up thus:
IP: 192.168.1.55
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1

DNS:
192.168.1.105

I don't know if this matters, but the SBS server is actually a VPC, and I
have 2 exact copies of the same VPC but they have different CRM data for
demos. So earlier today I had the client logged onto VPC SBS 1, and now I
am trying to log onto VPC SBS 2. All the network settings, accounts, etc.
are exactly the same on the 2 VPC images.
