This may seem like a weird question for this situation: Are the clients in the same DHCP subnet? Are the exchange servers in the same subnet?
I have experienced similar sorts of issues with a DC / file server... MP -----Original Message----- From: Gonzalez, Alex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 27 March 2003 7:31 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Possible hardware issue? We have sort of a weird issue going on here and I am wondering if anyone else has seen this. We have an EX2000 server that runs smooth for some users and poorly for others. All the clients are different ranging from 97-2002 so I have taken the client out of the picture. We have changed NICs and the PCI slots on the motherboard and we are still getting the same issues. I performed a ping to it from a workstation that is getting good response with 64k of data and I get clean responses at about 12ms. When I perform the same ping from another workstation that is having difficulties I get a lot of time outs and when I do get responses they are more like 120ms. We have changed the cable, the switch that it goes to, and even plugged a laptop into the same switch and we are getting the same response. The switch that it plugs into is the backbone switch directly. If we move people to another exchange server everything works fine. Has anyone ever seen something like this and if so what did you do? There are also some master browser errors (event 8003) in the event log that talk about UDP but I haven't been able to make anything of them either. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
