Here is my sad but true tale;
We just moved our office accross town and after a few problems we got
everything up and running. I was VERY careful that nothing was changed and
the set up was the same including port numbers. Then some computers couldn't
see the W2000 server, next the intenet was lost. After three reboots its back
to normal, fo 15 minutes then we start losing connections again. Up and Down
all day Thursday. The server can't see the network computers and they can't
see the server.
I took everything down and started at the server. I got the internet working
and then i started on the desktops one at a time, until they could see the
server. Everything is great all day Friday. Then this morning if you did have
a mapped drive the the server you can't see it and if tis not mapped to you
it can't see you either.
reboots don't work this time. I know its something simple but I'm to the
point of having dreams of doing all types of bad things to the server.
 
We need more information to help, but I would check the DNS first.
