single or dual NIC SBS?
If 2 NIC check that NetBIOS is not bound to the 'external' NIC.

We're seeing a strange problem .... SBS 2003 r2 approx 10 XP Pro clients.
They have applications that look at Netbios names to run... eg. sage etc.
they look for \\sbs .
They work fine for hours and then all of a sudden they stop, and if you do
\\sbs to see the shares all it shows is the offline redirected my
documents.
If you do \\sbs.domain.local then the shares all appear fine, however
because
the apps use just \\sbs they don't work.
It takes a reboot of the server AND the workstations to get everything
working again.
Have run dcdiag and netdiag and it passes all tests.
I've tried an entry for the server in the hosts file but that doesn't
help.
Clients are all dhcp node type 0x8 which I believe is hybrid. WINS/NBNS
and
DNS Server ip's are handed out over dhcp too.
This is causing major pain for my customer so any help is greatly
appreciated.
