I'm pulling my hair out over this one....

I have 40 clients logging into a w2k server. 35 XP and 5 98s. I was using NAT on my firewall and each client had a local IP. I changed the firewall to standard so that each cleint has a public IP. The firewall serves DHCP and it is configured properly. All of my XP machines work perfectly, no problem.

Now all of sudden my 98s get the following error.

"The domain password you supplied is not correct, or access to your logon server has been denied"

I get this error if I log in as the admin and/or the user of that mahine. I did a release and renew. When I ipconfig it shows the correct DNS, gateway, subnet, ect. I can ping other machines.

This is absolutely ridiculous! Nothing was changed except the IP range and everything works except these POS 98s.

Any advise would be appreciated.....

If its the same problem I'm experiencing they will login when you reboot them, doesn't fix the problem but is a tempory work arround.

I still havn't resolved this one.
 
thread96-556197 DSCLIENT may be the solution. I will try that tomorrow.
 
I guess I FIXED IT for now....

I removed WINS and the use LMhost setting on the NIC.... Rebooted the server and troubled WS and it works now.

Very strange..

BTW, I did restart the WSs with no avail so I'll assume it had something to do with the WINS....

Thanks
