Been tearing my hair out here folks! (But I suppose I was asking for it with my first Vista:SBS domain! )
It is a new single SBS Dell server. Stock standard - so should be no issues. But...
All four users have started dropping off the network for local resources, yet they still have internet access (which goes through the server - as it has two nic setup)
It has been working fine till recently.
As far as I can see it either something to do with applying policies, or, the ldap protocol is being blocked somehow. Logging on and off can be very slow at times on some of the workstations, but not others...
Previously I had Nod ESS Smartsuite installed on the server - until I found out that only the antivirus component of this is suitable for server environments. In desparation, I have now uninstalled this as well, and the connections have stayed up for several hours - which is encouraging.
So I think I solved it!?
But my question is: what version of Eset NOD32 antivirus is stable on SBS2003?
Or what other AV is suitalbe on SBS2003?
Prior to this I had set the two nics to 100Full manual.
I had upgraded the driver for the AMD Semperon processor - as I read somewhere this could cause issues.
Here is the info you'll be asking me for
