By cant access, I mean that the computers cant ping anything including
the server.
By name, or by IP?
My DHCP server is not leasing any addresses to the
computers.
Why not? Are you seeing errors about this? You said your SBS server was
hosting DHCP services... it should be.
All the computers are personal computers that were
preconfigured with Windows XP, So correct, the server was set up after
all these computers.
How did you join them to the domain? Did you create computer accounts (the
to do list on the server walks you through this) and run
http://servername/connectcomputer on them? Did that work right/
Also what do you mean by the IP config
properties. How do you get those properties where I can remove the
DNS suffix. I can take a snapshot of the IPCONFIG on either computer
and e-mail it (Can I post a picture on here?)
Best not to post attachments in newsgroups that don't have the word "binary"
in the name.... no need.
Is each computer configured to get a DHCP configured address?
If not, change that. Log in as an admin, go to network properties / tcpip
properties - make sure everything is set to receive addresses automatically,
and remove anything you see that's set statically (including the DNS
suffix).
Were these computers previously configured without your SBS server
in the picture? In each computer's IP config properties (DNS /
advanced) remove the connection-specific DNS suffix or anything that
says RCN (or is statically set).
That said: you didn't really describe what "can't access" means. Can
you ping the router's LAN IP? Can you ping a public DNS server IP
address? Can you ping www.google.com from a workstation?
Try posting an unedited ipconfig /all from the server and from a
recalcitrant workstation in here.
You didn't post this - it would help.
