Re: Users cant find SBS server- Help needed

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I found 2 gost NICS from an old Intel card that was installed one for
troubleshooting and deleted them. LANNIC entries appear correct as per KB
875422, but it is a litte vage in several areas.

Still have the problem, the severdoes not show up in its own network

Can you follow the instructions to sort the lannic registry entry? I believe
the SBS BPA provides instructions or a link?

You may need to check for ghosted nics, and delete those.



1. Click Start, click Run, type cmd.exe, and then press ENTER.
2. Type set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1, and then press
ENTER.
3. Type Start DEVMGMT.MSC, and then press ENTER.
4. Click View, and then click Show Hidden Devices.

Is the SBS best practices analyser installed? - if not install and run it
and look for NIC advanced features that need to be disabled.

Please post the output of "ipconfig /all" run from a command prompt on
the
server, and from one workstation.

Last night I updated the NIC driver on Dell server while
troubleshooting a
problem with Dell techsupport. Doing so erased all IP addresses on NIC
cards.
I Added the correct address on both NICS and reran CEICW.m Since then
no
one
can connect to the server.

DHCP works , email works, everyone can access the internet thru the
server.

If I look in network places (on the server), no computers show up in
the
domain including the server.

If I look in network places (on a client computer), all client computer
show
up, but the server is missing

On the server, if I search for a client computer by name it finds it
ok.
On a client however a search for the server comes up not found

DNS and DHCP look ok!!
