Hi -

I have a w2k server and an nt workstation and a w2kpro machine on a linksys switch under a larger Novell network. The server is setup as a dhcp domain w/ a static ip. The workstations have dynamic ip's. The workstations can login to the server, but when they transfer large files to the server (within the domain), the rest of the outside Novell network bogs down. If I remove the uplink cable from the switch, I can't ping or transfer data to the other machines, but I can get time from them. Please help.
