That
would be correct. A default installation of 2000/XP, annoyingly so, has the
network card hardware set to "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save
power" even on the server versions. If you go to the properties of your LAN
connection and selct the Configure button for the network card hardware, then go
to Power Management, you'll see it.

there is an option somewhere (I think in the N/W card
settings) to allow the OS to power it off to save energy - there's probably an
associated reg key you could use to roll out the change.

Hello,
Has anyone ever had a problem with
xp-2000 clients not being pingable when the desktop goes into power save
mode?
It happens to a handful of clients
each night, which means nightly updates etc. are not
happening.
I think I have checked all of the
options on the client machines but some just do not respond until the space
bar
Has been touched then they are
fine.
Thank you,
Jerry
