You can have multiple DNS servers, multiple WINS servers, but you can only have multple DHCP servers if the IP ranges for which they are assigning addresses do not overlap, you then have to do some things to make sure they both don't try to give an address to the same machine. It sound like...

Actually, that is not 100% correct. I ran XP Home on my NT network for a while. XP Home cannot process the 'normal' logon, but it can access domain resources for which the user has permissions. It has been a while, so I no longer remember the details of what I had to do, and it cannot be...

It is really going to depend on your subnetting and subnet masking to make this work. Get a good book on DNS and TCP/IP configuration to start with. The Internet NIC would only be referred to in your gateway settings on the server. All the workstations will see the server address as their...

Glad you fixed it, but I would check a little deeper to see what caused this to change. I had this same problem last year; it was the result of a virus attack. I won't go into all the bloody details, but in the end a clean install was required since the 'clean up' utilities did as much damage...

This is a known issue that occurs during the setup of active directory/DNS in W2k. Knowledge base article Q229840 outlines this and a method to resolve it by deleteing the "." range. I found it easier to delete from the AD MMC than through the command line method shown in the...

First step is make sure you can ping that address from outside.

If I read your posting correctly, both your DLINK router and server have DHCP running? If so, I would disable it in the router - you can only have one authoritive DHCP server on the same range. Two will create IP addressing conflicts resulting in lost leases, etc which could be the cause of...

I can point you to two resources you should have/use: Mastering 2000 server by Mark Minasai Windows 2000 Adminstrator's Pocket Consultant by Microsoft Press. Either or both of these should answer your questions.

You may have already done this: Make sure that only static IP's are assigned to the server (you can use DHCP for the workstations). Restrict your DNS server to the internal LAN NIC address (in the configuration do not let it use all available IP addresses on the server, just the one for your...

Rob, To start at the beginning Server Setup: What is the IP address of your server? It appears from your original post that it is at 192.168.20.2, your range is 192.168.20.255; I'm assuming that it has a single NIC. You need to initiate/install DNS and DHCP services on this server (I'm...

I'm going to be doing a lot of guessing here but I think you need to do a couple of things to make this work (based on some assumptions about the router you have). 1) Before you turn off its DHCP/DNS services, you will need to assign it a Static IP address in you network. I'm assuming there is...

ME can join a network, but MS limited the number of protocol's that it would support and (if I'm not mistaken) the ability to support policies. It only came with support for NetBeui and TCP if I remember correctly. Also, server admin tools were not available to be run from an ME workstation...
