Hi,

My network's performance fluctates greatly, How can I start to trouble shoot
this problem (and yes a realize this is a rather large issue with many
possible factors)? Is there a means for mean to see which services and
computers are consuming most of the bandwidth and cpu usage of the servers?

secondly, Is there a way to set the servers so that they never dedicate
more than 40% (arbitrary number) of there ressources to any given task? can
you set such parameters... what other parameters can be set as well if this
is the case?

Thank you so very much for the help and insight. Just one lost novice admin
trying to stay afloat in this sea of information.

The first thing you need to do is determine where the bottleneck is.
Windows 2000 Server and above have a Performance Monitor that can show you
various system parameters while the server is running so you can determine
if the problem is the server or not - and from there solving the problem
should be trivial.

Richard,

Thank you for the rapid responses for both of my posts! Don't be
surprised if I follow up on this particular one once I manage to identify
the source of the problem.

Thanks once again,

Daniel
