Here's the SCOOP... I come into work and these 2 guys tell me their computers don't work... hahaha right!

I'm running w2k pro for clients and connecting to a w2kserver. For some reason the clients don't get DHCP information and then can't communicate with the server. Just get a message "the domain "blah" can't be contacted" when trying to log in. I don't understand this because the tcp/ip settings are the same as they were the day before, the nic is good, i tried it in diffren't slots, checked the cable... everything. I'm just wondering if anybody has seen this before and could give me an idea of what might have happened. thanks a bunch

Cheers
