Thanks for your suggestions guys.... The lan manager hasn't been communicating with me about what's happening so I don't know but I think the problem has gone away... I don't know why. Maybe they put another machine in. I'm in china here. The lan manager and everyone else is chinese and they...

We used to have Sygate on a win2kpro server on our little lan but now we've only got a bare win2k machine. With Sygate it was a snap to configure Port Forwarding (I think that's what it's called) to send port 80 traffic to my client machine where I'm running an Apache server. Now we can't do...

We have a small lan of win98 machines with a win2k machine acting as the server. Win2k. Not win2kpro and not win2k server. I know this is win2kpro forum but there isn't a win2k forum and I guess any answer I get might well apply to win2k. The problem is this machine goes down every night after...

Hi... I've a client machine on a small win2000 Lan here in China. The lan keeps on losing the internet but I discover that a programme busy downloading is still downloading - and a web page I have I can still refresh. But no new web pages can be found. Ping reports 'unknown name' on a name...

Suddenly my win2k box has started giving me a 'connection refused' on every 'open' command I give it. That's from win2k dos ftp. Gui progs like ftp explorer and aceftp don't do any better... they don't give me that message but they fail to connect. I'm running no firewalls. I'm on a win98 LAN...

john duggie - you look like you're talking to yourself, john, but that's right... when i disable zonealarm everything's alright. on closer inspection there's an advanced configure in zone alarm that allows entry to selected computers. I can still run zone alarm if I configure that part to...

K1W169 - no, there's no common IP numbers or names. There's only five machines on the network so it's pretty easy to be sure about that. tonyflavell - it doesn't work like that in win2000 and remember everyone can see everyone okay when my machine is not up.... johnduggie - yes, I've got...

i've got zonealarm, norton anti-virus, gozilla, killad, dns2go, icq and various odds and sods that pop up from time to time (usually without me asking)..

What else are you running? Anything that could interfere with browser communications?
