What protocols are you using? If you are only running IP is your DHCP and WINS servers running?
I general recommend using NetBeui for workstation to server connections, then you dont have to worry too much about the local naming servers, just make sure that it is installed on the server and the clients

thanks for the tips.  i was not able to ping the server from a couple of computers.  checked hub, sure enough some of the ports were bad, it was alittle difficult to tell at first since there are so many ports.  thanks again!
