Hi there,
I have a domain on a 03 server which a staffs laptop was connected to. I got a call from the user saying that they can no longer ping the server. checked everything and decided to reformat. upon loading drivers i was still unable to ping the server or any peer machines(ip on the range 10.10.1.1-250) just before i gave up and blamed the network card i tried changing the ip address to our routers range(192.168.1.1) it worked and was able to browse the net etc.
I am able to change my ip to the same ip as another computer's (10.10.1.1range) and i do get a conflict so the cable must work(also using the same cable as my machine that connects) I am assuming that the DC is preventing me from connecting/pinging on the server ip range for some reason?
Any ideas?
