Only 2 relevant events occurred in my network lately 1) changed to legal time last Sunday (we're in europe) 2) domain machines are SMS 2.0 clients. 2 days ago the SMS databases filled up the disk. The problem was sorted out shortly. (the problematic site is a secondary SMS site) In any case, i can't explain why the issue is occurring on an apparently random pattern and only on a single site. > > Doing a network trace/sniff of at least two computers > experiencing the problem should yield enough network > hosts/servers in common to narrow down your troubleshooting. > When all else fails to yield the answer...sniff... > > Hope this helps...
