Re: Vista Unauthenticated network

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



When this problem occurs and the network changes to unauthenticated, the network location is changed from domain to public.

The DHCP server is on the SBS box.

Hi,

What network location are the vista pc's in, is it public, private or domain?

Where is your DHCP Server located, is it on the SBS box?

Matt
