"A Duplicate Name Exists on the Network" error on Client bootup?

Asked by peakoplant in Windows 2000 Server, SBS Small Business Server, Microsoft Operating Systems

Tags: duplicate, name, network, exists, error

Hi, can someone enlighten as to why all of a sudden, any random client pc can boot into windows xp to logon to our Windows 2000 Exchange server and an error pops up saying "A Duplicate Name Exists on the Network". The client can then reboot once, sometimes twice and its fine again.

I know that there are no duplicate names on the network as i have checked several times and it appears to happen randomly on any machine on the network. I have also checked the DHCP server and there are no conflicts there either so i am wondering where i can go next??

Many thanks, SteveStart Free Trial
