Anyone have an idea why? Windows 2k server. Windows xp client. every day, at seemingly a random time and for no apparent reason, just kicks off all clients, forcing a reboot/relogin. Any Ideas?

Sorry. It's a 3com. Webtrends costs a good bit, doesn't it? Rick

Thanks, Lad. I can't believe it was something so simple. Rick

Damn, if that's all the problem was I swear I'll kick myself. I should have been doing this during the day. Rick

When installing sp6a, the install goes nicely until it gets to 100%. it then tells me that the account i'm using (the administrator account) does not have sufficient rights to enumerate something or other, or that the password is incorrect. Anyone seen this? know how I can fix it? Thanks in...

The boot up time is a result of the server being unable to find the PDC/DNS/File Servers.

I have a windows 2000 webserver, with 2 nics. One is inside our firewall, and should log into our DC (also 2k)and map network drives. the other is outside our firewall, and should use only our ISP's DNS and should not even look for our domain. When i start the server, it takes forever to boot...

I am running a windows 2000 pdc and bdc. My older servers, including the backup server are running windows NT4.0 sp6a. I would like to be able to replicate directories with my nt4 server and my bdc. Is this possible? I have installed the dfs client for nt4, but it tells me the file replication...

that gives me a new look at the problem. when i tried to force replication, i got a dns lookup error. Any helpful hints for dns anyone can add? Rick

Win2k pdc and bdc, active directory running. For some reason, I cannot log on to the bdc except as administrator. If I sign into the domain from a workstation, I can access resources on the pdc, but not the bdc. Any ideas? Thanks, Rick
