Server’s LAN adapter hangs on long pings
LockedNT4 SP6 Server
Mixed clients
Had occasional network hang ups
Found out that I can trigger the hangup sending long pings on the network (-l 50000) to a remote PC that is limited to 10Mhz (but it normally works resolved by the router).
When I pingthis client (w98SE) and have a request time-out, server’s LAN board hangs up,
no connection is seen anymore, and have to restart it to make it operational again.
Default gateway goes to Internet remote share.
Must at least avoid server’s hang up,then will make network consistent to 100Mhz, but can’t accept an unknown hang up situation.
Something must be wrong with settings but can’ t understand what. Apart from this all semms to work correctly and relyably, exept primary WINS (see my previous question). Secondary WINS is OK.
Any hint ?
