Who did the original setup ?  Were multiple people involved over time with the 
current setup ? 

Sounds like your currently have a  layered configuration without the 
possibility of best practices applied to each layer, thus resulting in this 
issue. 

Is the network well documented  ? If not then it can be a quiet a ball of wax 
to deal with.  

If you have inhouse folks and just need help with identifying the cause of the 
issue, I may be able to help.
If you are looking for a turnkey solution / fix clean up then it will be best 
suited for one the consultants .

Regards.
