    WIN 2000 VPN help

    I'm guessing that your using the same domain name for both your internal network and your internet domain name. If so, you must add your external web pages in your DNS to point to the external IP's. If your company domain name is company.com and you also use company.com in your internal...

    Windows 2000 Server not renewing / blocking physical address

    Obviously, something is bound by the old MAC address (hardcoded) and we simply need to find where. If your DHCP and not getting an IP, then it might have reservations done by MAC addresses. You would need to go take a look at your reservations in your DHCP and see if a reservation was done...

    map drive as local drive

    You can try the SUBST command. In Windows 2000 it might still see it as a Local Drive. I was able to test it by mapping an substing a network drive (in XP), but I'm not sure if this will work in Windows 2000, or even if your software will fall for this little trick... but it only takes a few...

    FQDN works on workstations, but not the server...

    Add the DNS domain name to the DNS suffix in your TCP/IP properties of your network card on your new machine. Since your adding a second server, you must give it a fixed IP, so you will not be querying the DHCP for all of the network details you need, which includes the domain name. Your 2nd...

    Cisco VPN Deployment

    This is my personal opinion, but I gave up on trying to GPO or package the Cisco VPN client. I simply added it to my SYSPREP images. Every time I tried, it would end up Blue-Screening someone or make them loose their TCP/IP stacks, causing major headaches, like having to reinstall the stack...

    Complete Blank Screen When Logging In

    Ok, It's solved. I found some other posts about this issue and I did two things, but I'm not sure which one corrected it: 1) I ran SFC, inserted the Win2K CD and let it go. 2) Ran a re-reg of IE modules as per the Bcastner's post: Make a .CMD file called IE_FIX.CMD and insert the following...

    Does MAC filtering really work?

    You can buy network cards with programmble MACS. MAC filtering is just another layer of added security to something like SSID and username/passwords. "In space, nobody can hear you click..."

    I've had this issue with VPN clients installed and other softwares trying to add to your LSP stack. Ended up removing the VPN and resetting the LSP with WINSOCKFIX or LSPFIX (search these forums for the links for the software to those two utilities). I then reinstalled them and all was fine...
