Firstly this small network is based in the UK.
My friend has a network with 2 W2K servers, 1x win98, 1xwinME and a proxy server with an ADSL connection. Previously the main DC was WINNT4.0. He rebuilt the DC with W2K server set up DNS and DHCP correctly and used DCpromo successfully. However when he tries to add any of the other boxes to the domain he is returned the error message, "The network cannot be found". He can successfully ping all boxes from each other. On IPconfig /all, all IP addresses are in a similar range and correct subnet masks applied. The domain name does not end in a .com it is machinename.domainname. He dispared so much at one point that he rebuilt the DC as a PDC WINNT4.0 box and it all worked again.
Anyone have any ideas what might be the problem? We have both looked at it for so long we have probably overlooked something really obvious.
Many thanks
