Hi all, im new to this so here goes. We are in the process of making a server using 2k3. It is all set up, the PC (Client) is using Windows XP. However, the PC cannot connect to the domain. So when we try to ping the server from the PC it does not work, it cannot see it. But the connection is fine as I can ping the PC from my Server.

I have also noticed that before the server has fully booted up i can ping it and i see it. Could this be to do with some of the services that are running?

Thanks

Ben Rutter

Try reposting this in the 'Q&A' forum. The 'Discussion' forum is for matters of general discussion, not specific problems in search of a solution. The 'Water Cooler' is for non-technical discussions. You can submit a question to 'Q&A' here:

https://www.techrepublic.com/forum/questions/post?tag=mantle_skin;content

There are TR members who specifically seek out problems in need of a solution. Although there is some overlap between the forums, you'll find more of those members in 'Q&A' than in 'Discussions' or 'Water Cooler'.

Be sure to use the voting buttons to provide your feedback. Voting a '+' does not necessarily mean that a given response contained the complete solution to your problem, but that it served to guide you toward it. This is intended to serve as an aid to those who may in the future have a problem similar to yours. If they have a ready source of reference available, perhaps won't need to repeat questions previously asked and answered. If a post did contain the solution to your problem, you can also close the question by marking the helpful post as "The Answer".
