Steve,
connect your workstation *directly* to the server by a crossover
cable. see if this improves things. if it does - the network is the
culprit: possible multiple segments connected, "dueling" dhcp servers, all
kinds of things. if it doesn't - try a differen workstation and / or
different server. julius
