Cannot ping domain controller on different subnet

[HupAhh]

Hi,

I've got a Windows 2000 server which is a member of a Windows NT 4.0 domain (which is on a different subnet). Up until recently the server had been working fine but now I can't ping the PDC or BDC from the W2K server. I've tried from PC's on the same network as the server with the same results. However when I ping the PDC or BDC from a server on the same subnet I get a reply.

In all cases DNS resolves the IP Adress correctly but I just can't get a reply. I've checked other servers on the same switch and I can ping them from each subnet so it doesn't look like a router or switch issue.

Please help!

Paul

check that the dhcp gateway setting is correct

Turns out the PDC had Service Pack 6a applied yesterday and the installed failed. Reapplying the service pack has resolved the issue
