Help! Clients are off the network. PWT24 12/30/2008 3:26:01 PM This is a Standard SBS2003 SP2, no ISA. Last night I tried to change my servers configuration from a 2 nic to one. I thought this was an easy thing to do but every time I think that it ends up proving me wrong. I disabled the second nic and tried to run the CEICW and it failed saying there was a DHCP scope issue so I changed the IP address of the server and then disabled the Nic and ran the CEICW. Changed my server ip back to the original address and reran the CEICW again. Now it appeared to be good but all my clients were disconnected from the network. I tried to release and renew the addresses with no luck, so I then even tried to assign statics and still no luck. The server connects to company web and the internet just fine but no clients can connect. Now I put everything back (so I thought) and I am in the same boat. Still, the server connects to the internet just fine but no clients. I cannot ping the server from a client and I cannot renew the address because it states the client is unable to contact the DHCP server. Now I have tried to restart the DHCP service many times and still no luck. Any ideas on what I screwed up? Any ideas how I can just go to a one nic configuration? It is a long story why I am doing this but the bottom line is there seems to be no way to connect an iphone to my server so I thought maybe this 2 nic is the issue. I have spent about 35 hours trying to get my iphone to connect so obviously I am reaching for anything at this point and thought that might have something to do with it. Now I have bigger issues with no clients!!

"Larry Struckmeyer [SBS-MVP]" <lstruckmeyer[ at ]mis-wizards.com> 12/30/2008 3:46:30 PM Seems we should first fix what you have, than move to one nic if you want, or fix the iphone with one or two nics your call. To work on the present issue, please post the unedited results of: ipconfig /all > c:\iptest.txt from the server and an affected workstation. -- Larry Please post the resolution to your issue so that others may benefit.

Re: Help! Clients are off the network. "SteveB" <newsgroup[ at ]public.lan> 12/30/2008 6:08:02 PM In your first post you mentioned changing the server IP address several times. Did you use the Change IP wizard to do this? You certainly need to get DHCP running properly on the SBS so that clients can receive a valid IP address.

Re: Help! Clients are off the network. PWT24 12/30/2008 6:23:05 PM Yes I used the wizard. Sticking to those is something I do know. :) Yea, getting the DHCP is VERY important to say the least! The server has run successfully for 2 years and I had a one nic configuration for about half that time but got worried it was not secure enough based on posts here. Now I don't care too much about that. Things I am attempting to do in the coming weeks; Go to one nic. (need asap) Get our new iphones connected to exchange. (would like to do asap as I also have clients to do the same thing with but would like to learn with mine first) Deploy my Cisco ASA5505 that has been in a box for 2 years (well I have waited this long) :) Rebuild server using new hardware (3 TB drives in a RAID5) Weekend?? Install SBS2008 (weekend??) "SteveB" wrote: [Quoted Text] > In your first post you mentioned changing the server IP address several > times. Did you use the Change IP wizard to do this?

Re: Help! Clients are off the network. "Larry Struckmeyer [SBS-MVP]" <lstruckmeyer[ at ]mis-wizards.com> 12/30/2008 6:30:16 PM Steve is right... you need to get your ip and dhcp straightened out. As a rule, you should see every nic in your lan pointed to the internal nic of the SBS for DNS. Secondly, the external nic should be on a subnet not commonly used by home based routers, meaning that 192.168.0.x and 192.168.1.x are not good choices. (only relevant if you choose to allow VPN direct to the server). Run the change server IP wizard to move it to 192.168.xx.2, (you can move it back to .16 if you wish). If desired, move the external nic and the LAN side of the router, but not necessary for this exercise. Then run the CEICW and verify that the workstations can get an ip in the same range as the server internal nic. Once that works, than if you can ping the server from the workstations by ip and by name, you should be good to go. If none of this fixes it, give us a new config and look at the properties of the DHCP server and make sure your switch is working. You should be able to do that by putting the workstation on static in the same range and ping server ip should then be successful. -- Larry Please post the resolution to your issue so that others may benefit.

Re: Help! Clients are off the network. "SuperGumby [SBS MVP]" <not[ at ]your.nellie> 12/30/2008 9:05:07 PM the workstation IPConfig here suggests it is getting an IP via DHCP from 192.168.10.2, which appears to be the 100Mbps interface of the server. I would expect you to wish to use the Gbps adapter on the server for your LAN and fear that it is a mixup of 'what is connecting to what' that has been the issue from the start. Q1) Do you have a Gbps switch for use on the internal network? Q2) If so, is the SBS's Gbps NIC the only server NIC connected to this switch. My intention at this point would be to lose internet connectivity by disabling the 'external' NIC of the server. Run the 'Change Server IP' wiz to put the server into an odd subnet (odd being something NOT 192.168.0/1.x) and see if we can get the workstations talking to the server. The workstations would, of course, connect only to the Gb switch. "PWT24" <PWT24[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:B2C7421A-67A4-4826-802B-C7AAAF04D4A6[ at ]microsoft.com...
