Scottious Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 (edited) ok, this is a bizarre problem, of course everything in Windows is weird. Just yesterday I had a happy network workgroup setup called ACOUIDEA. There were two computers in this workgroup and it worked fine. Just today, I added someone elses computer to the network (2 computers are win2k, the host is server2k3). Once this other Win2k machine was added I can't even access the workgroup!! EDIT: I noticed that in the DHCP table, only that new laptop that I added to the network shows up, yet I'm still getting an IP address The Error message I get is the one I pasted below. Any suggestions will be very very much appreciated. Edited August 26, 2004 by Scottious Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvjunkie Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 Did you set up your host to allow enough ips? How long is your dhcp release time seet for? Other than that, its kinda hard to diganose without sitting in front of the thing and checking a bunch of little stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacked Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 Man I feal your pain. I've banged my head against the wall trying to get my 2 computers to talk to each other. In theory its supposed to be simple....then I get ahold of it and it doesn't want to act right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
