They are running server 2003 and XP machines. &nbsp;I've run a traceroute but it gives me the same number of hops as the ones who can connect.<br />
I've been trying to avoid repairing the TCP stack since many are production machines, but I guess I'll have to try. &nbsp;<br />
It might be a few days before I can schedule maintenance, but I'll report back how it goes.

I've encountered a strange problem. &nbsp;I have a remote office that needs to access my ticketing system on an Apache webserver. &nbsp;I created an ACL on my router that allows access to their public IP. &nbsp;<br />
I was able to test a few of the machines in their LAN and only about 50% can access the site. &nbsp;The others give me a &quot;Network Error (tcp_error) Operation timed out&quot; message. &nbsp;This happens both when i use the name and IP.

Network Error (tcp_error)

Web browsers are applications used primarily to display documents, files and media from the Internet, identified by a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that can be a page, image, video or other file. Some browsers require the use of add-ons or extensions to safely render the information they receive; others have systems built into them to perform the same functions.

The Apache HTTP Server is a secure, efficient and extensible server that provides HTTP services in sync with the current HTTP standards. Typically Apache is run on a Unix-like operating system, but it is available for a wide variety of operating systems, including Linux, Novell NetWare, Mac OS-X and Windows. Released under the Apache License, Apache is open-source software.

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
