No Network Icons in N&DU Connections

[garty]

I am running W2k Terminal Services on 2 domains in one forest.

The network has a few WINS/DHCP related problems we think, but one thing we have noticed is that on the Domain Controllers, when you go into Networking and Dial-Up Connections through Control Panel the ONLY icon there is New Connection!!

One DC has 2 network cards and the other DC has one. We know they are working and present as everyone on the network has full access to server files etc.

Without these icons, we seem to be unable to check things like protocols and IP address configuration.

Has anyone come accross this before and know of a solution?

Hi,

I have exactly the same problem. My configuration is much the same. Win2K Server with SP2 and two NICs (PDC) and other server with Win2K one NIC. The two NIC server appears to be working fine and I can ping any other device on the network including itself.

I would be most grateful for any pointers on this problem as well. So far my research hasn't turned up anything for a fix.

Best regards, Spoons.
