After a night of just about no sleep and spending the day
on this problem. I did not let on but it was slightly more complicated in such
that our Exchange servers were unable send mail between sites. After placing a
call with HP and then getting forwarded to Microsoft Canada we still had no joy.
This morning we found that the following patch was applied last Friday, our SUS
roll out day:
This patch caused the following:
Exchange servers unable to talk between
sites.
Workstations only able to access shares on local subnets.
Unable to access Corporate intranet..separate
subnet.
If any of you have or have had the same problem I wouldn't
mind an e-mail as I need as much ammunition as possible for the seemingly large
report I am going to have to put together.

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Policies:
Assuming that there is no static(s), ACL, NAT or PAT issues with a firewall or router IOS keeping IP traffic from flowing over what I am guessing to be port 80 traffic. ICMP (ping) means little in the way of connectivity. Just means that a form of traffic can reach the destination host. Have you done a TRACERT to check the timing? Also, what port or mixture of ports seem to be blocked? Understand that ICMP is getting through to the host but if this involves long distances, it may be a propagation issue or a combination of issues. Lets whittle some of these unknowns out one at a time till we find a solution.
