We had an application/file server that is running windows server 2003. The server has always just been a member server. We had some issues with cpu load on the server so we have moved all data/programs to a virtual(vmware) server and all of that is working good. But we just noticed that if we turn off the old server the entire network becomes slow, its like our workstations are tied to the old server. We also had users home folders on that server and everyone had 2 mapped drives to it. We switched via login scripts to what server they map to. If the server is on the network all is good, I can even put a host entry in on my workstation and point the server name to 127.0.0.1 and it works fine as well. So there has to be something telling our workstations to lookup the old server but we just can't figure out why. Any help would be great. Thanks a lot.
