RH610: Do you have an internal DNS server? is the service running? Do you have an internal WINS server? From the sounds of it you have nothing resolving names to address's? if you type 'NSLOOKUP' AT A CMD LINE and type in a known name of a local machine, if your dns server is working you...

What in that cache file? i don't know anything about Sun but i'm still thinkin' that file is putzed somehow. Can you replace it? Can you read it? I know DNS needs the cache file to find the resolvers from, but how Sun does that...i leave to you It's possible your firewall is blocking the port...

Hey bierhunter.... nice answer!! That should work good for them... jjeffm MCSE MCP

Oh i forgot you won't get a local connection until it sees a nic in there..

HI Mjess, you'll never get the 1394 connection to go away and it won't matter anyway. Can you go into device manager and pick a driver for the nic? Geez i thought XP had darn near every driver ever made..Guess not.. Try uninstalling the card and reboot and let XP find it. Do you know what it is...

If you have more than one try swapping the memory. i had one that the simm went out and it did a similar thing, where it wouldn't boot.

Yes they blocked the port, or put you on an exclusion list. The list is most likely, did this happen after that last round of welchia? It's happened to us..

Hey whatever works.....We've all done it..

Hi SimonPeh: Did something happen to your DNS cache file? Look in \winnt\system32\dns and you'll see a cache.dns file. open it with notepad and see whats on it. it'll tell you how to update it too. It should have all the high-end reslovers listed ( the ones for the internet). There is a backup...

Your OK you just didn't click enough. Try opening the forward zone, then double click on the zone you want to open ( it must expand out in the right pane) now you'll have that option. Hope that helps..i had to go to my dns server and try it.

Hey Azitman: First are these NT 4.0 servers? Are we in a single domain? Try adding a pointer record to server2. If it's not in dns or if it's in it's own domain, no one will be able to see it. But i'll bet you can map to it?

We use Compaq tapes and there was a point in the veritas install that you should have said "use existing drivers". We use compaq servers and they need the OEM drivers to run right.Veritas should have giving you the option of which drivers to use. I don't know who to change them once...

Hey Schooler: What kind of nics are in theses servers? The "new" cisco stuff is WAY more propietary in who it'll talk to..I have a server with a smc card that worked fine in the old 2916xls but when we plugged her in to the 3500 it absolutly would not talk to it. We found this to...

Nothing bad will happen, you can even use the drives while they're rebuilding..It's going to take awhile to add drives of that size..Don't be impatient.It took 3hrs just to add two 9.i gigs to mine.. Just stick in a new one add use the array utility to add it to the array. COOL STUFF that array...

Did you use the compaq line terminators? Compaqs like a special termination block.
